نقد متون السنة النبوية في تأصيلات الإمام الشافعي : قراءة لعلامات الوصل بين أصول الفقه و أصول الحديث

الملخص EN

This study defines Shafi’i’s methodology in the assessment of the content (matn) of Hadith, adopting a descriptive and analytical methodology.

It concludes that, according to Shafi’i, an established Sunnah is evident and does not need any external evidence to verify, e.g.

practices of the narrators, people of Madinah and the so-called ‘regulative analogy’.

However, the credibility of narrators and their explicitness of inference are the measure taken for this course of examination.

Therefore, a Hadith cannot be authoritative if the narrator lacks legal understanding and proves to be unprofessional in narration.
