Sheikh Nasir al-Din Albāni, is one of the most influential and prolific Sunni authors and a student of Hadith and a follower of the sect of Salafiah, who offered a new approach to textual criticism. He follows certain principles in editing and evaluating hadith and textual criticism. Albāni in the study of each hadith first looks for the text of hadith in reliable books and once he trust the citation of hadith in the reliable books of hadith he attempts to evaluate it and if he finds it is authentic he believes it is necessary to evaluate the text by referring to certain principles, such as agreement with the holy Qurān or tradition or reason and experience. This article attempts to introduce and explain Albāni’s method in critiquing texts of hadith and it shows at the same time that his method in some cases is not reliable.
