Abstract

The book “Tahdheeb Al-Kamal”, is a marvel in the method he adopted in writing biographies of hadith narrators, which reveal a disciplined, clear mind in every element of biography ;Among those methodologies: introducing the narrator to his relatives, such as he is father of so –and- so Among the narrators, or grandfather him, or brother him,...etc.
This idea had not been written about before, so I wanted to write about it, which is simple in its appearance and splendid in its impact.
One of the important results of the research is that this idea has been applied by previous scholars in the books of "Jarh w-Ta'dil", but it is not the unified methodology that Al-Mizzi followed in his entire book from beginning to end.
