Validation And Routing Of Recording And Transmission Of Hadiths “ Abyssal Thinking “ By The “List” Analysis Method

The collection of hadiths concerning “ Abyssal Thinking “ which includes the Qudsi hadith: “ترددی فی موت عبدی المومنک ء انا فاعله ما ترددت فی شی”, can be considered as one of the clear examples of the problematic hadith (مشکل الحدیث) that has been discussed for centuries by scholars, jurists, theologians, philosophers, Shia and Sunni mystics and commentators. The following article seeks to analyze the validation of the hadith collection of “ Abyssal Thinking “ based on the ancient “book-oriented” validation system. The purpose of implementing this process is not only to find out the validity of this collection of hadiths, but also to trace the entry of these hadiths into the first Shia hadith sources and its flow in later sources. Collecting the primary sources containing this hadith can present the belief hidden in it as an accepted and comprehensive thought among the Imamiyyah. Therefore, in order to achieve these two important things, i.e.: identifying the first narrators and also discovering the first hadith books containing the hadith, by analyzing the documents of this valuable and famous hadith in the existing hadith sources, we traced it in the primary hadith sources and as a result, proved its validity and strength.
