التعصب المذهبي وأثره في نقد الرواة: دراسة في المنهج النقدي للشيخ محمد زاهد الكوثري الله

Abstract EN

Doctrinal fanaticism is not acceptable morally and scientifically.

it has no consideration for what fanatics say about the narrators in the field of hadith narration.

therefore, the imams of hadith require, in the case of narrators' evaluation, a justification and clarification of such evaluation in order to validate its credibility.

that is perhaps a negative evaluation of a narrator, turned out to be fanatic, non-objective and impartial, after verification.

accordingly, many judgments were rejected for this reason.

the present research deals with the issue of doctrinal fanaticism and its impact on criticizing the narrators.

in this regard, the researcher focuses on the analysis and discussion of what Muhammad Zahid al-Kawthari, wrote in this case and the related issues in his writings.

moreover, the researcher relied in his analysis and discussion on the responses of two scholars’ responses to al-Kawthari; namely Ahmed al-Ghumari and al-Moalimi.

as result of the analysis and discussion, the paper found that Sheikh Al-Kawthari’s approach in dealing with the narrators of the offensive narrations on Imam Abu Hanifa challenged their credibility.

he considered their narrations unauthentic, the case, which needs a study.

accordingly, this encouraged me to undertake an analytical and critical study of it.
