Conclusion It is not possible for us to give all the details of the critical sciences developed by the scholars of hadîth. What we have stated in this chapter is only a simple example of the works undertaken by them. It can, however, help one to imagine the altitude of their academic and scientific efforts and to satisfy oneself that the task of “preservation of hadîth” has been performed by this ummah with such diligence, precaution, and sense of responsibility that one cannot find its parallel in the history of any other community. It was through these efforts that the divine promise of the preservation of the Holy Qur’ân, with all its letters and meanings, was duly fulfilled. € € [€Back€] [€Up€] Connecticut Council of Masajid, Inc.
