Hadith was a credible source to explain the Qur'an which was still global. But in choosing a credible hadith to be used as a source of reference, must go through many stages, one of which is the quality of hadith. The quality of the hadith was a major consideration in an Islamic source. A hadith narrator named who in certain works has the quality of authentic traditions, but in other works he was judged to be ḍaīf by other scholars' hadiths. The article will discuss about the hadith about the greetings of al-Bukhārī in the book Adāb al-Mufrād which was judged to ḍaīf be by Naṣhīruddīn al-Albānī through criticizing his hadith in the Ḍaīf Adāb al-Mufrād book. This article tries to review the criticisms made by al-Albānī with the hadith research method simultaneously. Criticism of hadith that will be carried out has a specificity in assessing the quality of a hadith, because it was not only through criticism of matan and sanad, but also considers understanding in a hadith. So, this article will find the degree of a hadith which was discussed by considering the compatibility and meaning of a hadith. Keywords: Hadith, Simultaneous, Greetings Abstrak Sumber nilai ajaran Islam kedua setelah Al-Qur‟an adalah hadis. Hadis menjadi sumber kredibel sebagai penjelas Al-Qur‟an yang masih bersifat global. Tetapi dalam memilih suatu hadis yang kredibel untuk dijadikan sumber rujukan, harus melalui banyak tahap, salah satunya adalah hadis harus berkualitas. Kualitas hadis merupakan pertimbangan utama dalam sebuah sumber Islam. al-Bukhārī dikenal dengan periwayat hadis yang dalam karya terentu memiliki kualitas hadis yang ṣaḥīḥ, tetapi dalam karya lain dinilai ḍaīf oleh ulama‟ hadis lain. Artikel ini akan membahas tentang hadis tentang Salam riwayat al-Bukhārī dalam kitab Adāb al-Mufrād yang dinilai ḍaīf oleh Naṣhīruddīn al-Albānī melalui kritik hadisnya dalam kitab Ḍaīf Adāb al-Mufrād. Artikel ini mencoba meninjau ulang kritik yang dilakukan oleh al-Albānī dengan metode penelitian hadis secara simultan. Kritik hadis yang akan dilakukan ini memiliki kekhasan dalam menilai kualitas suatu hadis, karena tidak hanya melalui kritik matan dan sanad saja, tetapi juga mempertimbangkan pemahaman dalam suatu hadis. Sehingga, dalam artikel ini akan ditemukan derajat suatu hadis yang dibahas dengan mempertimbangkan kecocokan dan makna suatu hadis.

Mustafa Erdil 23 JULY 2016 Signature: ABSTRACT The aim and objective of this study is to highlight the importance of and the status of hadith in Islam, as well as its relevance and reference to sunnah, the Prophetic tradition and all that this integral source of reference holds in Islam. Furthermore, hadith, in its nature, origin and historical development with its close relationship with the concept of memorisation and later recollection came about after the time of Prophet Muhammad. This study will thus explore the reasons behind the prohibition, in its initial stage, with the authorisation of recording the hadiths and its writing at another time. The private pages of hadith recordings kept by the companions will be sourced and explored as to how these pages served as prototypes for hadith compilations of later generations.

Pandangan pertama cuba mempertikaikan keotoritian beliau dengan mengemukakan pelbagai alasan dan kritikan terhadap beliau, manakala pandangan kedua mempertahankan keotoritian dan keabsahan beliau sebagai perawi Hadith yang bertanggungjawab dan jujur dengan mengemukakan pelbagai bukti bagi menyokong pandangan tersebut. Hasil daripada perbincangan yang diutarakan membuktikan Abu Hurayrah r.a. adalah seangkatan dan setaraf dengan sahabat-sahabat Baginda Rasulullah s.a.w. yang lain dalam keotoritiannya meriwayatkan Hadith dan beliau tidak pernah melakukan perkara yang boleh menggugat keabsahan beliau sebagai perawi.

Associate Professor of Theology University of Isfahan Iran, Isfahan , Iran Received: 23/02/2015 Accepted: 2/06/2015 Today, syntagmatic and paradigmatic analyses are widely applied by literature researchers and experts as principal methods in understanding and interpretation of religious texts. Taking syntagmatic and paradigmatic analyses into consideration, this research seeks to explore the explicit and implicit meanings of the Arabic term (Doon), literally translated as “other than, instead of, besides, and apart from”, in the Holy Quran. It also aims to determine how much attention Quran translators have paid to the meanings of the term and in transferring them into the target language, namely Persian. The study, conducted based on structural semantics and "دون" using descriptive –analytic research methodology, has found that the term (Doon) has various meanings and functions in the Holy Quran, but in some cases, translators have failed to render them correctly. The original meaning of the term is “other than and inferior” which is seen almost in all phrases and lexical ," دون ﷲ " combinations in the Holy Book. Therefore, for instance, the phrase which has been transplanted as “other than, besides and apart from Allah” in famous translations, can be rendered as “[someone/something] other as Allah that Inferior to)" have been used as equivalents) از ِود" Inferior)" or) ِود" .”is inferior Doon) in old Persian translations of the Quran which closely correspond) "دون" to with the denotation of the Arabic word ,since they contain both the sense of “other Doon) can bear different meanings in) "دون" ,than” and “inferior”.

One of their reasons is that the traditional hadith criticism only examines the chain of narrations (sanad) of hadith reports and ignores the content (matn) of the hadith. This essay will discuss the role of matn criticism in the authentication of hadith; whether it is included in the traditional method of ‘ulūm al-ḥadīth or not, and if so, what is the criteria and how the scholars apply them. INTRODUCTION Hadith is reports of the words, actions, tacit approvals or disapprovals of Prophet Muhammad. It is also called the Sunnah, which is the second source of Islamic teachings after the al-Qur’an. In fact, the detail aspects of Islamic law, theology, and morals are found in the hadith. However, unlike the al-Qur’an, not all hadith that exist and spread among Muslims are authentic.

Not only was He the leader of the Muslim community, and the vehicle through whom the Qur`an was revealed, but he was also considered, by virtue of his status as a final Messenger of God 1and to be a suitable model for human behaviour.2 Because of this, His leadership guided the community while he was alive, but his example was believed to be normative long after his death. The Qu’ran orders Muslims to follow the example of the Messenger and so from the very beginning the Companions (sahaba) concerned themselves with following the Sunnah (conduct or customs) of the Prophet, which was embodied in hadith (reports or anecdotes narrating his words and deeds.) Since these hadĭths were an important source for the development of Islamic law, the community had to know which traditions were reliable, and which were clearly fraudulent. But the problems of hadĭth have led to much disunion over authenticity, and have led to development of the complex science of hadĭth as it serves as an additional link between Prophet Muhammad and the Qur'an. One can question the authenticity of the hadĭth, which contradict the Qur'an; however, if one were to dismiss the whole corpus of hadĭth, the very foundations of practiced Islam would be threatened.
