In Muslim al-Naysaburi (d. 261/875). The skeptical traditionalist,
Pavel Pavlovitch studies the life and works of Muslim b. al-Hajjaj
al-Naysaburi, the author of the famous collection of traditions
(hadith) al-Musnad al-sahih (The Sound Collection), which Sunni
Muslims rank as the third most authoritative source of legal and
theological norms after the Qur'an and Muhammad b. Isma'il
al-Bukhari's Sahih. Based on multiple biographical sources and
Muslim's extant works, Pavel Pavlovitch studies hitherto unexplored
aspects of Muslim's biography, elaborates on his founding
contribution to the science of hadith criticism, and examines the
transmission history of Muslim's Sahih in unprecedented detail. The
monograph includes the first systematic study of Muslim's
traditionalist theology, which played a defining role in the
formation of Sunni identity.
