Kulayni narrated in his “Usool Al Kafi” the book of “Fadl al Ilm” the chapter “Ikhtilaf al hadith” 1/68:
جعلت فداك، أرأيت إن كان فقيهان عرفا حكماً من الكتاب والسنة، ووجدنا أحد الخبرين موافقاً للعامة والآخر مخالفاً لهم، بأي الخبرين يؤخذ؟ قال: ما خالف العامة ففيه الرشاد. فقلت: جعلت فداك، فإن وافقهما الخبران جميعاً؟ قال: ينظر إلى ما هم إليه أميل، حكامهم وقضائهم، فيترك ويؤخذ بالآخر
Ja’afar bin Muhammad was asked: May I be sacrifice for you, If two scholars(faqihs) extract a ruling from the Quran and the sunnah and we have two proofs, one proof is in agreement with the mainstream muslims (Ahlul Sunnah) and the other proof contradicts what they believe, which proof do we take?
Imam said: take what contradicts the mainstream muslims because in it you will find guidance.
He said: May I be sacrifice for you, what if both proofs agree with the beliefs of the mainstream muslims? Imam replied: then you need to check which of the two they lean towards the most and leave it and take the other. (Majlisi in “Mirat” said hadith is muwathaq).
Ibn Babaweih al Qummi wrote in his book “Uyun akhbarul riza”:
حَدَّثَنا عَلِىِّ بْنِ أَحْمَدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّه بْنِ أَحْمَدِ بْنِ أَبي عَبْدِ اللَّه البَرْقِي وَمُحَمَّدِ بْنِالبَرْقِي وَمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِى ماجِيلوَيْه وَمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِىِّ بْنِ هاشِم وَعَلِىِّ بْنِ عِيسَى المجاور رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ قالُوا حَدَّثَنا عَلِىِّ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ ماجِيلوَيْه، عَن أَحْمَدِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خالِد، عَن أَحْمَدِ بْنِ مُحَمَّد السَيّاريُّ، عَن عَلِىِّ بْنِ أَسْباط قالَ قُلْتُ لِلرِّضا عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِلرِّضَا عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ يَحْدُثُ الأَمْرُ لا أَجِدُ بُدّاً مِنْ مَعْرِفَتِهِ وَلَيْسَ فِي الْبَلَدِ الَّذِي أَنَا فِيهِ أَحَدٌ أَسْتَفْتِيهِ مِنْ مَوَالِيكَ قَالَ فَقَالَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ ائْتِ فَقِيهَ الْبَلَدِ فَاسْتَفْتِهِ فِي أَمْرِكَ فَإِذَا أَفْتَاكَ بِشَيْءٍ فَخُذْ بِخِلافِهِ فَإِنَّ الْحَقَّ فِيهِ.
28-10 Ali ibn Ahmad ibn Abdullah ibn Ahmad ibn Abi Abdullah al-Barqi, Muhammad ibn Musa al-Barqi, Muhammad ibn Ali Majiluwayh, Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Hashem and Ali ibn Isa al-Mojawir – may God be pleased with them – narrated that Ali ibn Muhammad Majiluwayh quoted on the authority of Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Khalid, on the authority of Ahmad ibn Muhammad al-Sayyari, on the authority of Ali ibn Asbat, “I told Al-Reza (s), ‘There are times when I must know the decree on an issue which arises, but I am in another town where none of your followers are present from whom to ask.’ The Imam (s) said, ‘Go to that town’s jurisprudent and present your question. Act against whatever he decrees since that is the right thing to do.’”
In his “Risalat al Ta’adul wal Tajreeh” Khomayni quoted one from their masoom saying:
ما أنتم على شيء مما هم فيه، ولا هم عليه شيء مما أنتم فيه، فخالفوهم فما هم من الحنيفية على شيء
“You (shia) are on nothing of what they (Sunnies) are on nor are they on anything you are on, so do the opposite of what they do…”
And in same work he quoted answer of Jafar on question:
يرد علينا حديثان: واحد يأمرنا بالأخذ به، والآخر ينهانا عنه، قال: لا تعمل بواحد منهما حتى تلقى صاحبك فتسأله. قلت: لا بد أن نعمل بواحد منهما. قال: خذ بما فيه خلاف العامة
We come across two hadiths, he orders us to follow one and leave the other. He said: “Don’t work with any of the two until you meet your friend and ask him”. I (narrator) said: “I have to choose one and work with it”. He said: “Take the one which contradicts the mainstream Muslims (Sunnies) and work with it”.
In conclusion of his risala, Khomayni (may Allah illuminate his grave with fire) said:
فتحصل من جميع ما ذكرنا من أول البحث إلى هنا أن مرجح النصوص ينحصر في أمرين: موافقة الكتاب والسنة، ومخالفة العامة
So in conclusion to everything we mentioned since the beginning of our research until here, That the acceptance of Hadiths is limited to two things:
1-Quran and Sunnah.
2-Its opposition to what the mainstream Muslims believe.
One of the main shia books “Fusul al muhimma” (by Amili) has such chapter inside:
“Chapter of impermissibility of working with whatever agrees with the mainstream Muslims and their methods”
Let us see some ahadeth from it:
[ 876 ] 5 – فمن ذلك قول الصادق ع في الحديثين المختلفين: اعرضوهما على اخبار العامة فما وافق اخبارهم فذروه وما خالف اخبارهم فخذوه
From as-Sadiq, when he was commenting upon two different ahadeth, he said: Compare them with the Hadiths of the mainstream muslims and whatever agrees to their hadiths then leave it and whatever opposes them then take it.
Other saying attributed there to masoom:
[ 877 ] 6 – وقوله ع: إذا ورد عليكم حديثان مختلفان فخذوا بما خالف القوم
If you come across two conflicting hadiths then take whichever opposes the mainstream Muslims.
[ 878 ] 7 – وقوله ع: ما خالف العامة ففيه الرشاد.
Whatever disagrees with the mainstream Muslims then in it is guidance.
[ 879 ] 8 – وقوله ع: خذ بما فيه خلاف العامة
Take what opposes the mainstream muslims.
[ 881 ] 10 – والله ما جعل الله لأحد خيرة في اتباع غيرنا، وإن من وافقنا خالف عدونا، ومن وافق عدونا في قول أو عمل فليس منا ولا نحن منه
By Allah, Allah has not made any goodness in following anyone other than us. Whoever agrees with us must disagree with our enemies and whoever agrees with our enemy in any saying or action then he is not from us nor are we from him.
[ 882 ] 11 – وقول العبد الصالح ع في الحديثين المختلفين: خذ بما خالف القوم و ما وافق القوم فاجتنبه
Regarding two different ahadeth: Take that which opposes them, and that which agrees with them avoid it.
[ 883 ] 12 – وقول الرضا ع: إذا ورد عليكم خبران مختلفان فانظروا إلى ما يخالف منهما العامة فخذوه وانظروا إلى ما يوافق اخبارهم فدعوه.
Al Redah (alaihi salam) said: If you come across two conflicting news then look for what opposes the mainstream Muslims and work with it and abandon that which agrees with them.
[ 884 ] 13 – وقول الصادق ع: والله ما بقى في ايديهم شئ من الحق إلا استقبال الكعبة فقط.
And from as-Sadiq: By Allah nothing of the truth remains in their hands except facing the direction of the Ka’abah. (something similar was authenticated by Sayed Jafar al-Murtada in “Saheeh min as-sirah” p 145)
Shaikh of rawafidh, which they nick names as-Saduq in his book “Ilal ash-sharae” (2/532) entitled chapter in following way:
العلة التي من أجلها يجب الأخذ بخلاف ما تقوله العامة
“The reason why one should take what opposes the mainstream muslims”
First hadith from it:
1 حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ الْأَرَّجَانِيِّ رَفَعَهُ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع أَ تَدْرِي لِمَ أُمِرْتُمْ بِالْأَخْذِ بِخِلَافِ مَا تَقُولُ الْعَامَّةُ فَقُلْتُ لَا نَدْرِي فَقَالَ إِنَّ عَلِيّاً ع لَمْ يَكُنْ يَدِينُ اللَّهَ بِدِينٍ إِلَّا خَالَفَ عَلَيْهِ الْأُمَّةُ إِلَى غَيْرِهِ إِرَادَةً لِإِبْطَالِ أَمْرِهِ وَكَانُوا يَسْأَلُونَ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع عَنِ الشَّيْءِ الَّذِي لَا يَعْلَمُونَهُ فَإِذَا أَفْتَاهُمْ جَعَلُوا لَهُ ضِدّاً مِنْ عِنْدِهِمْ لِيَلْبِسُوا عَلَى النَّاسِ
Abu Abdullah (alaihi salam) said: “Do you know why we order you to take that which opposes the mainstream muslims?” I said: I don’t know. He said: “Because Ali (alaihi salam) used to worship his Lord with things that the nation (Mainstream muslims) used to then oppose in order to ruin his caliphate, they used to ask Ameer al Mumineen(Ali) (alaihi salam) about things which they did not know and if he offered his fatwa then they would oppose it with something of their own to misguide the people.
In the book “Al Tahqeeq fi Nafi al tahreef An al Quran al Shareef” by Ayatullah Ali al Milani, in the second chapter, you can read:
ويذكر ثقة الإسلام -كما يقولون- محمد بن يعقوب الكليني في مقدمة كتاب الكافي بأنه أعتمد نقطتين أساسيتين في تصحيح الأحاديث وتضعيفها وهما:
الأولى: ما وافق القرآن فهو صحيح، وما خالفه فهو ضعيف.
الثانية: ما وافق العامة فهو ضعيف، وما خالفهم فهو صحيح.
And thiqat al islam Muhammad ibn Ya’aqoob al Kulayni has mentioned in the introduction of his book that he adopted two main points in order to verify the sahih of the hadiths and the weak ones:
Firstly: Whatever agrees with the Quran is sahih, whatever disagrees with it is weak.
Secondly: Whatever agrees with the mainstream muslims is weak, whatever opposes them is sahih.
– end –
Thus we see that the twelvers (rafidah) are doing their best to unite the muslims by opposing us in everything we do… So next time Mr.Twelver Shia when you find yourself in a sunni country and you want to know the ruling for adultery remember to ask a sunni faqih and then do the exact opposite of what he tells you… in it is guidance.
