The paper analyzes evolutionary changes of contradictory views on the development of hadith science in the West, a collection of six reliable sahih hadiths and foreign scholars attitude towards them, as well as the historical significance of hadiths and their importance in the Islamic world. It is known that some hadiths were fabricated for various purposes. We are far from thinking that all hadiths are authentic and correct. However, because of some "fake" hadiths, we oppose the rejection of Islamic sources after Qur'an. Therefore, the essence and contents of many works published in the West must be reanalyzed today. As a practical implementation of the above-mentioned issues, most of the foreign researches on hadith have been studied with using comparative-historical, logical, and descriptive methods in this article. As a novelty of this work, it is possible to present the analysis of new books, articles published abroad. The results show that many western scholars changed their negative views about hadiths to positive side and they are also researching the historical significance of hadiths. In fact, they are studying “al-Kutub al-Sitta” as the main source after Qur'an. According to our conclusions, many studies on the hadiths in the West have been conducted, but there is no mutual comparative analysis on this field. The role and significance of Central Asian scientists have not been studied adequately in the formation of positive opinions on hadith in the West. Key words: hadith, fake hadith, Qur'an, Prophet, West I. INTRODUCTION The place and substance of the hadiths are invaluable in Islamic world. Because the hadiths play an important role in understanding Islam and Islamic law. they are studied and appreciated in Islam as the main source after the Holy Quran. At the same time, these religious manuals are the traditional educational manual of Muslim nations that teach human qualities, the right and proper behavior in the family and in the world. Therefore, this article aims to summarize research published in the field of hadith and hadithology and provide a brief overview and analysis of today's approaches to hadiths. While studying Western researches on the hadiths, it has been observed that the initial negative attitudes towards hadiths changed positive side because of the persistent efforts of Muslim scholars and new evidence. In other words, in the late nineteenth and early 1990s, researchers claimed that Revised Manuscript Received on October, 2019. * Correspondence Author Karimov Nodir Rakhmonqulovich, PhD student, The Department of the History and Source Studies of Central Asian People, Tashkent State Institute of Oriental Studies, Tashkent, Uzbekistan.

Email: doniyorov_alisher@mail.ru hadiths are fake and they have no historical importance. However, their claims of no historical significance are completely groundless today. in this article, the founders of various theories and approaches to hadiths and most scientific papers on the subject have systematically investigated. The structure of this work consists of parts such as the notion of hadith and the history of its formation, the conflicting approaches of different scholars to the hadith issue, the skeptical view of hadiths, modern approaches and conclusions. II. RESULT AND DISCUSSION A. The Concept of the Hadith and the History of its Formation Ḥadith in Islam refers to the record of the words, actions, and the silent approval of the Islamic prophet Muhammad. Hadith have been called "the backbone" of Islamic civilization, and within that religion the authority of hadith as a source for religious law and moral guidance ranks second only to that of the Qur'an (which Muslims hold to be the word of Allah revealed to his messenger Muhammad). The hadith narrators are described as follows: "What is inherited from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) is a hadith or a Sunnah related to speech, work, editorial, behavior, and biography” [35]. This definition includes several things inherited from Muhammad (peace be upon him) and narrated through trustworthy sources, which we refer to as “hadiths”. It is known that the science of hadith came after the death of the Prophet. After all, in the life of the Prophet, his words and actions were limited to hearing and contemplating at first, but later narrating them. The Companions who listened to the Prophet's hadeeth also heard many and others less because of different circumstances. This led to an increase in the need for narration and narration. Since the Companions heard the hadith directly from the Prophet, the hadiths do not contain any cases of appetite, lies or forgetfulness. M.Azami wrote [1] that if there was any ambiguity in the memory of the Companions, it was the custom to ask and approve it from the other Companions. The stages of Hadith science development can be summarized as follows: In the first period, during the time of the Prophet, the Companions heard the hadith from the Prophet. They then conveyed these hadiths to others. For this reason, at this early stage, the science of hadith had the same characteristics as narration, memorization and transmission. In the second period, after the death of the Prophet, the Companions were scattered in various new states of Islam. Over time, the need for understanding the meaning of the Islamic rules and the meanings of the Qur'an increased. Since the hadiths were a source that facilitates understanding of Islamic sciences, there was a Conflicting Views Regarding the Hadiths N.R.Karimov, A.X.Doniyorov
