Perfect for weak men

Translation

Al-Kamil fi Difa’a al-Rijal is one of the most important books of Ahl al-Sunnah wal-Jama’ah on al-Jarh wal-Ta’deel and Ilm al-Rijal. It was written by Al-Hafiz Abu Ahmad Ibn Adi al-Jurjani, known as Ibn Adi. It is a huge book in which the author tried to trace and comprehend the names of all the hadith narrators about whom the imams of al-Jarh and Ta’deel spoke of weakness, and he mentioned in each narrator’s translation what hadiths the scholars denounced or what he considered strange or objectionable. Al-Kamil’s book by Ibn Adi is considered one of the most extensive books classified on weak subjects, and one of the most complete books he has written in this field. As it surpassed other books on this subject, such as the book Al-Majrouhin by Ibn Hibban, and the book Al-Dhufa’ Al-Kabir by Al-Uqaili.
