Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on learning the terminology of hadith? Is it an individual obligation or a collective obligation?
Answer:
It is obligatory for one who seeks knowledge of hadith to learn the terminology so that he knows the method of authenticating hadiths or weakening them, or identifying fabricated ones among them. There are hadiths that are fabricated and falsely attributed to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), so it is necessary to study the terminology of the science of hadith.
