L1 | Science of Hadith (Al-Bayquniyyah) | Shaykh Faisal Al-Jasim

Al-Bayquniyyah is a critical science that serves the radiant Prophetic traditions by enabling one to distinguish between authentic and fabricated narrations, as well as sound and weak reports. This science is pivotal for understanding the principles of Hadith authentication and preservation.

Al-Imam Abdullah ibn al-Mubarak said, “The quality of the Hadith is not in the conciseness of the isnad, rather its quality lies in the soundness of its narrators.”

This course provides a comprehensive explanation of the Science of Hadith, beautifully presented by Shaykh Faisal Al-Jasim. While the course was recorded years ago with slightly lower video quality, the content remains immensely beneficial for students keen to delve into the principles of Hadith sciences.

• The importance of Usul al-Hadith in distinguishing authentic narrations from weak or fabricated ones.

• The roles and attributes of narrators in ensuring the integrity of Hadith chains.

• Key principles used by scholars to verify the soundness of Hadith.
