It is very important to determine the situation of the narrators in the
science of hadith. Because, in order to be able to give authentic judgment to
any narrative, first of all, the narrators in the narrative list have to be reliable.
In this context, many scholars were engaged with science of disaffirmation and
corrections dealing with the situation of the narrators, and compiled works in
this respect. One of the scholars who was interested in this field and compiled
works is Ibn Ebî Hâtim er-Râzî. He was involved in making evaluations of many
narrators and used a number of terms to describe their situation. This study
examines the terms and meanings used by Ibn Ebî Hâtim in disaffirmation of
narrators.
