Abstract

The late Ayatollah Muhammad Asif Mohseni in his book "Mashra’a Bihār al-Anwār” has examined the Isnads of the hadiths of Bihar al-Anwar based on his own Rijal principles and identified the authentic hadiths mentioned in this book from his point of view. These authentic hadiths were collected by Mr. Sheikh ‘Ammār al-Fahdāwi under the supervision of Mr. Haider Hubballah in his book al-M’utabar Man Bihar Al-Anwar. In the present article, some of the noteworthy and thought-provoking hadiths contained in Kitāb al-M'utabar are examined and clarified, and some points and considerations are expressed about them. The mentioned points remind us of the difficulty of Islamic studies and understanding religion, as well as the need for caution in remarking about religion.
