<![CDATA[This research is prompted by the thought of Kamaruddin Amin who challenges the concept of ‘UlÅ«m al-ḤadÄ«th about the transmission of mudallisÄ«n in the á¹¢ahīḥ al-BukhÄrÄ« and á¹¢ahīḥ MuslÄ«m. The article finds that: first, there have been inconsistencies and gaps between the theory and practice in the concept of tadlÄ«s; second, there are negative implications of application of tadlÄ«s according to ‘UlÅ«m al-ḤadÄ«th against the transmission of mudallisÄ«n; third, Ṣīghat al-Taḥammul wa al-AdÄ’ has no significance either in the study of ḥadÄ«th authentication in general or in the context of tadlÄ«s in particular; fourth, NÄsir al-DÄ«n al-AlbÄnī’s method of determining the authenticity of mudallas ḥadÄ«th has a weakness and negative implications upon mudallas ḥadÄ«ths in general; fifth, the application of mudallas ḥadÄ«th criticism according to the traditional method using al-jarḥ muqaddam ‘alÄ al-ta‘dÄ«l idhÄ kÄnÄ mufassaran when the controversy occurs in the assessment of the predicate of a ḥadÄ«th; and sixth, orientalist’s method of giving the calendar to the ḥadÄ«th can be used as an alternative way to overcome the weaknesses of the method of classical ḥadÄ«th science.]]>
