Abstract

Before the examination of the channel and indication of the tradition (hadith), it should be studied the authenticity and reliability of the tradition transmission from the infallible. Undoubtedly, the best way to achieve this confidence is the reconciliation of the tradition with the noble Quran. In this method, the confirmation of the tradition by the Quranic verses is the reason that the tradition has been transmitted from the infallible and irreconcilable with the Book of God is the reason of the fault in transmitting system or reporting of the tradition. The scholars have studied this method from different aspects but because of few concrete instances of these traditions which reconciled with the Quran, they have stated different opinions in this criterion. The present paper with reconciliation of the tradition of arrogance chapter of the holy Kafi book with the Quran presents the understandable samples of these traditions. There are 17 traditions in this chapter which only one of them is not concurrence (or harmony) with the Quranic evidences.
