ILMU RIJAL

الملخص

Imam Muslim is one of the hadith scholars and a well-known author of two sahih books after Imam al-Bukhari. Due to the position of hadith as the second source of Islamic law after the Qur'an, the hadith plays an important role in explaining the content of the Qur'an. The hadiths were quoted through the way of narration and the established system of narration between generations and also between tabaqah after tabaqah which later gave rise to the emergence of hadith scholars in the field of narration and dirayah. Indeed, Imam Muslim is a distinguished figure among leading scholars who is reliable in mastering knowledge about the ins and outs of the knowledge of sanad and the background knowledge of rijal, or the knowledge of al-jarh wa al-ta'dil and one of the main topics of the knowledge involved is the knowledge of al-wuhdan. Imam Muslim has a work in this field called al-Munfaridat wa al-Wuhdan. This study is divided into two debates, the first: the definition of al-Wuhdan. Meanwhile, the second part concentrates on Imam Muslim's life and the approach of the book al-Munfaridat wa al-Wuhdan and the final part contains the closing and conclusion.
