Interaction between Baghdad and Ray's Hadith Schools

Interaction between hadith schools is an issue of high importance in development of hadith scholarship. Sometimes this interaction becomes so profound that its deep effects are obvious in hadith approaches and views.
Among hadith schools, two schools of Baghdad and Ray play an important role in strengthening Shiite hadith. Illustrating the extent of this interaction will help hadith scholars view it from different perspectives and get hold of new views. In order to achieve this goal, we try to investigate the rijal interaction of these two hadith schools.
Key words: Baghdad, Ray, Exaggeration.

History of Shiite Written Heritage in the Mirror of Fihrists

Since Shiite hadith is found more in books and collections and less in oral narrations it can be said that there is an inseparable link between hadith books and establishment of the early hadith schools, in different regions of the Shiite World. Shiite scholars tried to bring the hadith books written by great traditionists from learning place into their hometown by their permission and license. The writers of this paper try to view the existing biographies in Shaykh Toosi's al-Fihrist and Najashi's Rijal and analyze its chain of documents, then come up with the written heritage of important cities dwelled by the Shiite and finally the process of formation of some great schools such as Qum, Baghdad, and Khorasan is put on view.
