Accordingly, in this study, Kufa qadis of the first two centuries are discussed in terms of their relationship with hadith narration. The qadis were examined by taking into consideration their narrative identities in terms of their carh-ta'dîl status, the number of narrations, the relationship between fatwa and narration and the relationship of the qadis with each other. In addition, qadis were evaluated in terms of their relationship with politics, jurisprudence and scientific competence by taking into account their qadi identities.
