The term “Saleh” according to Imam Abu Hatim Al-Razi, a critical study

This study deals with narrators whom are described by Abi Hatim al-Razi as “salih”, i.e., righteous, with no restriction. The study aims to investigate these narrators and show their positions in terms of the acceptability as well as reveal the indication of the term “salih” according to Abi Hatim al-Razi. It is concluded that the term “salih” according to Abi Hatim al-Razi mostly means “the trusted” and the “the honest”. Most of these narrators did not narrate considerable traditions. The collectors of the Sound Traditions have accepted half of these “salih” narrators.
