The editing of the sciences of Hadith 2/1

Instead of arranging the topics like the well-known terminology books such as "Taqrib" or "Nuzha," Al-Jad'ee focuses in his book on clarifying the basic concepts, most notably: the news, the hadith, and the Sunnah: the author clarifies the connotations of these words and explains the differences between them in the usage of the imams, especially the early ones. Al-'Illal (weaknesses): this chapter is considered one of the most important in the book, as Al-Jad'ee gives great attention to explaining the reality of the 'Illal, and how they are perceived by the early scholars, emphasizing that 'Illal are not just "differences" but are "hidden decisive causes." Historical critique of the chain: the author clarifies the importance of examining the conditions of the narrators in terms of history, meeting, and connection, considering this to be at the core of the critical methodology of the early imams. Classification: the author discusses the types of classifications in hadith, such as "Musnad," "Sunan," and "mushaf," and explains the methodology of each type and the differences between them. Hasan (good) hadith: Al-Jad'ee provides a detailed study of the term "Hasan Hadith," clarifying the fluctuation of this term among some later scholars, and attempts to trace it back to its origins among the early scholars.
