| Summary: | G.H.A Juynboll is considered as one of the prominent western thinkers and
scholars in contemporary Orientalists world. He has produced a numerous
intellectual sources comprehensively. This paper aims to analyze G.H.A Juynboll’s
views in dealing with prophetic tradition. This was investigated from his thoughtful
and broad understanding of its principle and underlying purpose. The essential
understanding of the principle of prophetic tradition was analytically discussed in his
magnum opus such as; Muslim Tradition: Studies in Chronology, Provenance and
Authorship of Early Hadith , Studies on the Origin and Uses of Islamic Hadith, and
(Re)Appraisal of Some Technical Terms in Hadith Science. The finding shows that
G.H.A Juynboll’s discussion on prophetic tradition emphasized on irrelevance to
contemporary practice and modern context of Islam. It set forth important framework
and methodology towards reforming prophetic tradition, but have been critically by
most of prominet Muslim scholars due to contradiction between his methodology and
Islamic principle methodology. |
