Hadrat Ali's place in the hadith transmission (Specific to Kutub as-Sittah)

In this work, specific to Kutub as-Sittah, we tried to determine Ali's (r.a.) position in the transmission of Hadith and sunna with examining his transmission narratives from the Prophet Mohammed and his own words and acts. Ali (k.v.) is known as the Prophet Mohammed's son-in-law, the friend and closest human to him. In addition to this, he is one of the most important companions who transmit the hadiths from the Prophet. Although there are not many narrators who narrate hadith, the narrations which come from him originated in important subjects such as Fıkıh, Kelam, İslamic history etc. Hadith literature booked a lot of hadith which are conveyed from the Prophet or him. In this study, we evaluate 186 narrations (unrepeated) and 5547 narrations with their repetitions from the source of al-Kutub al-Sıttah and him. Eventually, we determine that 355 real narrations with their repetitions are authentic (92 unrepeated), 87 suspicious narrations (63 unrepeated), 103 narrations with their repetitions are unreal (71 unrepeated), 2 of them are untrue. The distribution of the rumors in al-Kutub al-Sıttah that we have identified is as follows. The total of unrepeated narrations of the six hadith imams in 333. According to this, there are 67 narrations in Buhârî (unrepeated 26), in Muslim 55 (unrepeated 26), in Ebû Dâvud 88 (unrepeated 68), in Tirmizî 131 (unrepeated 96), in Nesâî 110 (unrepeated 33), in Ibn Mâce 96 (unrepeated 84). Key Words: Ali, Hadith, al-Kutub al-Sıttah, transmission.
