Even though there are some limitations of active usage of ma'rouf/mashour sunnah originated from different understandings of sunnah, it is an important and primary criteria developed from methodological structure of the determination and the critique of hadith, and also it is a criterion which keeps its value in its consistency, applicability and functionality.trinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessHadithSunnahMa'roufMashourDeterminationCritiqueThe Methodological Value and the Function of Ma'ruf/Mashur Sunnah in Determination and Critique of HadithArticle1020139170WOS:000421950600006N/A
