[edit] History

He wrote it in the year 393 AH (1002-1003 CE), i.e. when he was 72 years old ^{[citation needed]}. It contained 9045 hadith ^[1]. He claimed all hadith in it were authentic according to the conditions of either Sahih Bukhari or Sahih Muslim ^[2]

[edit] Sunni view

The statement of authenticity was not accepted by a number of prominent later Sunni scholars.

Al-Dhahabi, a 14th century Sunni Shafi'i Islamic scholar made an abridged version of the collection named Talkhis al-Mustadrak where he commented on its authenticity. It has become the habit of scholars today working in the field of hadîth, when compiling them and determining their authenticity, to say things like "It is authenticated by al-Hâkim and al-Dhahabî concurs". In doing so, they are referring to al-Dhahabi’s Talkhîs, his abridgement of the Mustadrak that is often published along with it in its margins. ^[3].

Dhahabi also wrote ^[4]:

The Mustadrak contains a lot of hadîth that conform to the conditions of authenticity of both (al-Bukhârî and Muslim) as well as a number of hadîth conforming to the conditions of either one of them. Perhaps the total number of such hadîth comprises a third of the book or less. A lot of the book is comprised of hadîth that appear on the surface to be on the conditions of one or both of them, but that have hidden within them subtle but substantial defects. A portion of the book contains chains of transmission that are good and acceptable. This is about a fourth of the book. The rest of the book is comprised of rejected and extremely strange hadîth. At the same time, there are about one hundred hadîth that the heart declares to be false...

adh-Dhahabi lamented:

It would have been better if al-Hakim had never compiled it."^[5]

Ibn Hajar Asqalani, a 15th century Sunni Islamic scholar states that Mawdu'at al-Kubra is as unreliable in its atrributing the grade of being "forged" to certain ahadith as al-Hakim's Mustadrak is unreliable in its declaring the grade of "sound" or Sahih to many ahadith ^[6].

[edit] Shi'a view

Shi'a view that this hadith collection contains Sahih hadith in a larger degree than for example Sahih Bukhari does ^{[citation needed]}.
