A semi-objective term for modern critics, a thorough study

Early hadith scholars paid attention to Maten criticism. The critical term “semi-fabricated” is a proof for that attention to Maten criticism as well as to Sanad criticism. an‎d that clears the doubts regarding claims that early scholars were not interested in criticizing the Maten. Indeed, the term “semi-fabricated” is infrequently used by hadith critics and it describes a text which is similar to a fabricated hadith even though the Sanad is apparently acceptable. Unlike a fabricated hadith which is proved to be transmitted by a liar, critics are able to distinguish the words of the Prophet from other words narrated by an unreliable individual by observing peculiarity in the text. Using this term has an amount of variation, some narrations are designated “semi-fabricated” while they are fabricated according to other critics. The reason for that variation, seemingly, is the reluctance of a critic and its prompt judgment.
