الأحاديث الواردة في ذم البربر : دراسة نقدية

Abstract EN

This paper critically analyzes the Ahadith that were transmitted disparaging Berbers as an ethnicity.

I studied nine hadith that either explicitly disparage Berbers or can be understood as being disparaging of them.

The importance of this research lies in the fact it treats a sensitive issue in light of hadith that have been exploited by advocates of division, to increase the divide between Berbers and people of other ethnicities.

The purpose of the paper is to answer the following questions: Do authentic, prophetic hadith disparaging Berbers exist? What is the level of authenticity of the reports in some hadith compilations on this topic? The most important conclusions of this paper was that there isn't a signal authentically reported prophetic hadith disparaging Berbers and that all reports transmitted on the topic are defective in both their chains and the content of there texts.
