Qumian hadith narrators in early third century played a major role in transmitting hadith legacy of Kufa to this city. In addition to narration, classification, and explanation of hadiths, rereading Qumian hadith narrators’ criteria for accepting and narrating hadiths is of great significance. Muhammad b. Khalid al-Barqi is among outstanding scholars of that era who corrected and developed the pattern of dealing with the legacy of predecessors. While relying on the trustworthy hadith transmitters, he founded a new basis for that process through a new view with regard to legacy of the untrustworthy hadith transmitters and accepting their narration if accompanied by some evidence. While studying hadith legacy, the present essay evaluates evidence of this claim.
