M`ujam Rijal al-Hadith
The Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Abu al-Qasim Mousawi Khoei
Book subject
Rijal science, the biography of the hadith transmitters and analizing them
Compilation motivation
The Ayatollah mentioned in the introduction to his book: "In the past theRijal science was under special attention of the scholars and was of highimportance for them, but in recent times it has been neglected to such amount as if the Ijtihad )deducing the religious injunctions from the Quranand hadith( is not based on it. Considering this fact I was determined tocompile a comprehensive book that benefits the privileges of this sciencesufficiently.
Book features
This book is compiled in 32 volumes and as its title indicates has underlined the index aspect. It is attempted to render comprehensive information about each hadith transmitter as far as possible. Also since this book has been compiled later than the other books and major works in this regard, it dominates them and considers the comments of the previous scholars. Therefore, it enjoys an acceptable perfection and comprehensiveness, sothat if one possesses this book, he will not be in need of other books inmany cases.
In order to provide more authentications and reliability the compiler hasquoted all the contents of the book from the original source and did not pay any attention to the quotations of the others.
For each hadith transmitter the compiler also has propounded a profound scientific discussion and has clarified whether or not that hadith transmitter is trustworthy. Also, while mentioning the biography of each hadith transmitter the compiler has quoted the hadiths he is the transmitter of them from the four major hadith books (al-Kutub al-arba`ah). At the same time he lists all of his masters (teachers) and disciples as long as the reference of the hadiths traditions.
