Abstract

Among the notables of the fourth century in knowledge, literature and generosity, Judge Al-Tanukhi: Ali bin Muhammad bin Dawood bin Fahm Abu Al-Qasim. At this stage, the codification of the interpretation of the interpretation of those who possessed understanding and know-how, and the masters of transmission and narration began, and the interpretation moved to another stage, when it was singled out for authorship and became an independent science with its own writings.These interpretations are narrated with the chain of transmission to the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, and to the companions and followers, with weighting sometimes in the opinions he narrates and deducing some rulings and syntax when needed.The third century AH was the brightest of the Islamic scientific eras, with interest in codifying and disseminating knowledge, and this era was distinguished by the great demand of Muslims for knowledge.At this stage, the codification of the predicated interpretations, and the books of the hadith of the Prophet from the Sahihs, the Musnads, the extracts, and the parts, the most important of these six books began, the Mothers, and the Musnad of Imam Ahmed.“So that the absent witness may be informed, perhaps he is more knowledgeable than a listener.” “May God bless a person who hears a hadith from us and memorizes it until he conveys it. Perhaps a person who conveys a hadith will be more memorized for him than a listener.” “May God bless a servant who heard what I said and was aware of it and then conveyed it on my behalf. Perhaps he is a carrier of jurisprudence other than a jurist, and perhaps he is carrier of jurisprudence to someone who is more knowledgeable than him.” "
