الحديث الحسن مطلقا و مقيدا عند الإمام الترمذي

Abstract EN

The term 'sound tradition' is used by hadith terminologists to refer to an intermediate rank between hadith by itself and asound hadith due to other hadith in an absolute as well as restricted manner: a sound good tradition, a sound odd tradition and a sound good odd tradition.

Hadith scholars differed as to how to define Altirmidhi's exact meaning of that term.

Their stands are so contradictory that some of them maintained that Altirmidhi's meaning is not amenable.

Ibn Alsalah held the view that by a'sound tradition Altirmidhi meant a sound hadith due to other.

Using Altirmidhi's statements, the researcher wishes to define the exact meaning of the term.

The researcher adopted an exploratory analytical methodlogy to inveatigate Altirmidhi's use of the the term in his bool called Aljami' .

The researcher came up with following results: 1.

Imam Altirmidhi was not the first to use this term.

It was previously use by a number of hadith scholare beginninh with Ibrahim Alnakg'i and ending with Imam Albukgari.

2.

Scholars have gradually used this term; first it meant oddness.

Laster it was used to refer to a specific rank of accepted hadith (good and others) narrated not by prominent followers and their followers.

This is the required meaning of the term used by Altirmidhi and his predecessors of the rank of his Shaikhs such as Imam Altirmidhi and Ya'gub bin Shibah.

3.

The late scholars of hadith begining with Imam Ibn Alsalah on ward describe acceptes hadith which is lees than good and moor than weak as a sound hadith
