What are the books recommended for a student of hadith in the science of 'ilal al-hadith?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : "Al-'Ilal" by al-Razi, which is a single volume, is the most comprehensive book on this topic after the book—oh Allah—"Al-'Ilal" by al-Daraqutni. However, that book has not been printed in its entirety; only six or seven volumes have been printed so far, and I have received up to the seventh volume. So these are the books: "Al-'Ilal" by Abu Hatim al-Razi, and "Al-'Ilal" by al-Daraqutni, which is the most comprehensive and most beneficial, but it is not yet complete. The other books are very concise, such as "Al-'Ilal" by Ibn al-Madini and similar works.
The questioner : And al-Tirmidhi.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : Does al-Bukhari not have a book on 'ilal?
The Shaykh : We are not aware of that.
The questioner : And al-Tirmidhi.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner : Does al-Bukhari not have a book on 'ilal?
The Shaykh : We are not aware of that.
