MADHAB OF ABU ISA TIRMIDHI IN AQEEDA AND FIQH

Although this article is devoted to the personality of Imam Abu Isa al-Tirmidhi, the author of the book al-Jamiʼ, known as as-Sunan, it focuses mainly on revealing the truth about his doctrinal and jurisprudential views. It seeks to answer the question of whether Imam alTirmidhi’s views contradict the Ahl as-Sunnah or not, as some suggested. These aspects are covered in the article based on three paragraphs. The first point is entitled “The Status of Imam alTirmidhi in Science and the Importance of Al-Jami as-Sahih.” This paragraph describes the status of Imam Tirmidhi and the significance of the book “al-Jami” inherited from him. The second paragraph, “The Creed of Imam al-Tirmidhi” states that Imam al-Tirmidhi followed to the Hadith School. This paragraph reveals that the scholar followed the path of interpreting some verses, which is also the path of the Ahl as-Sunnah. Also, Imam al-Tirmidhi’s views on murtakib alkabira, the issue of faith, and the fact that action is a condition for the perfection of faith coincide with the Ahl as-Sunnah. The third paragraph, entitled “Fiqh of Imam alTirmidhi”, examines the scholar’s approach to jurisprudence. In this regard, Imam al-Tirmidhi was a scholar of hadith and jurisprudence, but he paid more attention to the science of hadith, narrated the words of the Companions and the followers about jurisprudence, the arguments of the sects, and preferred some of them. At the end of the study, it was concluded that Imam alTirmidhi was not an independent mujtahid like Abu Hanifa and the Shafi’i, but a mujtahid scholar who could make tarjih based on hadith. The results are followed by important ideas and conclusions
