التدرج في رتب رفع التعارض وأثره في دراسة مشكل الحديث ومختلفه: دراسة تطبيقية على كتاب: تأويل مختلف الحديث لابن قتيبة الدينوري (ت276هـ)

The current research aims to clarify the meaning of removing contradictions' ranks, the importance of their gradation by studying different cases in Taʾwīl Mushkil al-Ḥadīth of Ibn Qutaybah. The study also demonstrates through which the defect has arisen and the answer for the contradiction, and the effect of leaving the gradation of the ranks in removing the contradiction. The research adopted the descriptive approach in explaining the importance of caring about the reasoning before reconciling the different hadiths. Aside from that, the research also utilised the critical approach in performing critical study for selected models from various hadiths commentaries. The research was limited to six ranks to remove the illusory contradiction; it proved the importance of gradation and its effective role in evaluating the answers to different or problematic hadiths. The researcher has practically studied nine models from various hadiths commentaries, through which he showed the effect of gradualism of these ranks in depicting the accuracy of the answer to the conflict and problematic hadiths.
