https://doi.org/10.22311/2074-1529-2018-14-4-45-68
Abstract
The article presents a relatively complete list of the versions of the hadith — both in Sunni tradition and in Shiites’. The author highlights diff erent approaches to the assessment of the authenticity of these versions, as well as their representative interpretations by the leading theological schools of classical Islam — Kalam, Asarism (Hanbalism-Taymiyyism), Sufi sm and Falsafa.
