Abstract

This research aimed to study Al-Dhahabi’s story of the consensus on the weakness of some narrators and what is similar to that, such as the story of agreement on weakness or abandonment and the like, in his books “Al-Mughni fi Al-Du’afa” and “Diwan Al-Du’afa”, with the aim of verifying the extent to which these descriptions are achieved and what they benefit in the right of those narrators about whom they were said, using the analytical method in studying the concepts of terminology and their levels, the facts of their use, the extent of their agreement and difference, and to which type of weak hadith they belong? And also in standing on the facts of the conditions of the narrators who were included in the research and the degrees of their weakness, and he concluded that the concept of consensus was not previously established in the sciences of hadith, and that al-Dhahabi was preceded in his narration of the weakness of some narrators, but he did more than that and released it in his expression as a special ruling from him on some of them, except that it became clear that some of what was narrated of consensus is invalidated by the existence of disagreement in some narrators, and that some of them may write their hadith for consideration, and that there is a difference between theory and practical reality between the release of descriptions and what they require in terms of levels ofcriticism
