A muhaddith (Arabic: محدث) is a scholar specialized in the study, collection, and interpretation of hadiths, which are the recorded sayings, actions, and approvals of the Prophet Muhammad. [1] The role of a muhaddith is central to the science of hadith (ʻilm al-ḥadīth), a key field for understanding and preserving Islamic teachings and ...
Al-Jāmi' al-Kāmil Fī al-Hadīth al-Sahīh al-Shāmil or in short al-Jāmi' al-Kāmil (Arabic: الجامع الكامل في الحديث الصحيح الشامل), known in English as The Comprehensive Collection of all Authentic Prophetic Narrations or The Authentic Hadith Encyclopaedia, [2] [3] is a secondary hadith collection book, compiled by the Islamic scholar Imam Ziya-ur-Rahman ...
In putting together this collection, it was the author’s explicit aim that “each hadith is a great fundament (qāʿida ʿaẓīma) of the religion, described by the religious scholars as being ‘the axis of Islam’ or ‘the half of Islam’ or ‘the third of it’ or the like, and to make it a rule that these forty hadith be classified ...

There is disagreement on the amount of unique hadith in the collections due to the disagreements over what Hadith to include as a repeat (chain/text ...
The hadith, including its isnād, is free of ʻillah (hidden detrimental flaw or flaws, e.g. the establishment that two narrators, although contemporaries, could not have shared the hadith, thereby breaking the isnād.) The hadith is free of irregularity, meaning that it does not contradict another hadith already established (accepted).
