Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The Sunni sect, the majority of the current Muslim population, argues that their community should be based on the Prophetic Sunna (custom) authorized by Hadiths or traditions attributed to the Prophet Muhammad (d. 632). The establishment of the sect progressed form the 7th to 11th century. This research project focused on Ulama who called themselves “Ashab/Ahl al-Hadith” or “people of the tradition” in West Asian Muslim society between the 10th and 13th centuries. The goal of this research project was a social historical study on their scholarly practices to attribute various matters found in their society to the Prophetic Sunna by using their knowledge of Hadith. For the study, it summarized the historical outline of the Ashab al-Hadith, analyzed development of their theories by which they estimated the authenticity of Hadith, and discussed mutual influences between their scholarly practices and social conditions around them.
