Abstract

This research aims to collect the narrators who were described by Al-Hafiz Abu Al-Fadl Al-Sulaimani, that they were fabricating al-hadith, comparing his sayings with the sayings of theother scholars. It is divided into: an introduction, preface, two chapters, conclusion, and indexes. The importance of the research appears in that it is related to the collection of the sayings of one of the hadith critics regarding the fabricators of Al-hadith, with studying and editing his sayings. The researcher concluded: that Al-Hafiz Al-Fadl Al-Sulaimani is one of the distinguished critics of hadith, and the number of narrators who described them as fabricators reached sixteen narrators, and all of them are in a severe degree of weakness, except four narrators. The researcher recommends to collect the sayings (criticising and praising) of some critics about the narrators, editing them, and verifying what has been achieved from the books of Sunnah and biography.
