Hadith Sciences?

[KnowledgeSeeker]

As salaamu alaykum.

Could any other brothers or sister here be so kind as to list the sciences of hadith?

About the only Hadith Sciences that I am aware of are those of Mustalah al Hadith and Ilm al Rijal.

What other hadith sciences are there?

I've read through Suhaib Hassan's work

http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/fundamentals/hadithsunnah/scienceofhadith/atit.html

And although good, it doesn't really go into depth.

Can anyone help me out insha'allah?

[justabro]

this is my old blog with some articles about some issues related to hadith sciences:

islamicsciences.wordpress.com

basically, all the things that are studied in relation to hadith, such as chains, narrators, books, etc. as well as the categories of those things comprise the sciences (ulum) of hadith

hopefully, by the end of this month we'll be starting up lessons on mustalah on this forum, in sha Allah

Do you know of anywhere online where I could access what the names of those individual subdisciplines of "Ulum ul Hadith" are and how they all tie in together? Or would any one be willing to share that information here?

Thank you for the link.

Barakallahu fee.

Also brother, you can check the muqaddima of Ibn Salah which is also available in english as "An introduction to the science of hadith". You will find a lot of information in there regarding these sciences apart from the ones you have mentioned already. Just to mention a couple: The science of dealing with contradictory ahadith, The science of dealing with the abrogated and abrogating ahadith......etc.

wa’alaikum as-salaam,

There’s a new book (http://kitaabun.com/shopping3/product_info.php?products_id=2067&osCsid=9be6167d64edb21785adf21fd5e4c0d4) out by Dr. Bilal Phillips:

On a side note, does anyone know anything about the Shariff Kabunsuan Islamic University in Mindanao in the Philippines? Bilal Philips taught there.

Is the translation reliable brother?

And does the Muqaddima of Ibn Salah cover the entire spectrum of Hadith sciences?

The translation is adequate; the translator knows his stuff well enough. Muqaddimah of ibn al-Salah is an extremely important work. Most books after his were either summaries or commentaries of his book, or commentaries on some of the summaries of his book, or rewrites of his material. This is a good introductory read by Suhaib Hasan:

This is also a good book in English on the subject:

These books are excellent as well:

It would be great if some guy hadd acces to the Digital Library of Umm al-Qura Univ.. and give us his password LOL.

Free acces to theses, articles and much more..

[justabro]

I've emailed the file to Bilal, perhaps he can post it up either here or on one of these download sites. I would do it but it's been a while since I used one and I dont remember which one I used and I'm in a rush at the moment.

[KnowledgeSeeker]

Jazakallah for the links justabro...i have found them very helpful.

JK for the mail. I will upload it here, because the link above is blocked in KSA. Maybe it is blocked elsewhere too. So, anyway, here it goes. See attached.

As for the translation it is good as the brother before me has mentioned. I have a slight issue with almost all of the translations and this is the translation of the terms. I would rather keep the terms in arabic and at the end of the book explain them as this would be more beneficial while reading and it gives more basis to someone's understanding.

As for: "And does the Muqaddima of Ibn Salah cover the entire spectrum of Hadith sciences?", then it should be kept in mind that no book no matter how good and expanded covers everything on the science of hadith. However the Muqaddima points and guides to the principles that must be known in order to understand the process of hadith verification.
