@Ghazaly that verse was revealed at a companion who was not a fasiq. So I think we don’t have to know if the person is a fasiq or not to investigate. It’s not saying only investigate if he is a fasiq.
- It says investigate the truth of information when reported. That is all.
Also I never studied or cared for the chain Quran came by to accept Quran but they per Your rijal rules are all weak chains. That is why you guys have to say they are strong and trustworthy for Quran but not for narrating hadiths which to all honesty is a contradiction.
- Then how do you know the Quran was perfectly transmitted to you?
The reason you don’t accept them for narrating hadiths is because many of the narrators in Quran chains are Shiite and they narrate hadiths you don’t accept. So your scholars invented “trustworthy for Quran but not hadiths” logic.
- You have it backwards. The Shia reject Hadith sciences because they don't have authentic narrations, because if they apply the rules of Hadith sciences on their narrations the overwhelming majority will be rejected. This is a proven fact, since our Hadith scholars have already done the work on your main collections of Hadith (the 4). Instead, they invent circular "rules" to verify their narrations, such as the rules of 'Istihsan' or 'Istiqra' or 'Iqrar", which are so obviously circular. For instance, Iqrar is to say: narrator
X is a reliable narrator because he narrates that Imam
Y told him that he approved him as a good narrator. I'm sure you can see how this is circular. Or maybe this is why you think Ilm Rijal is BS. It indeed is in the Shia tradition. That's why the Zaydyyah use our collections instead.
Edit:
- I forgot to mention, there are no Shia in the narrators of the 10 Recitations & their 20 Paths. There is no "trustworthy in the Quran but in the Hadith" logic either. Each chain, each narrator, each hadith, each riwaya, each connections... is judged on its own merit.
