Abstract
Ebu Amr Cerir b. Abdillâh b. Câbir el-Beceli (51/671), was the chief of the tribe, Becile residing around Yemen. He obeyed the Prophet (PBUH) with the purpose of giving advice to Muslims. The Prophet gave him a special importance and considered him as a spiritual member of People of the House. As he had been sent to Yemen to fight against the people until they accept saying “Lâ ilâhe illallah” he never approved fighting with people saying the Word of Tawhid. For this reason, he preferred staying impartial in Hz. Ali-Muâviye struggle. Despite that upon the request of Hz. Ali, he went to Hz. Muâviye as a mediator, but he was not successful due to Hz. Muaviye’s harsh attitude. He withdrew to seclusion in the city of Karkisiya by the river of Firat. Besides being a great commander, Cerir also narrated some hadiths that are very important in terms of subject. Half of the hadiths he narrated are related to judgements (ahkâm). The aim of this study is to determine the hadiths narrated by Cerir concerning judgements (ahkâm) and to find out the level of their authenticity. Cerir, narrated thirty-one such hadiths, and the documents about the authenticity of hadiths that exceeded three hundred andthirty-three. Nearly half of the hadiths are accurate (sahih), some of them are good (hasen) and one third are weak (zayif). It is remarkable that the narrations which are contrary to the general principles of reason, Qur’an and law are very few.
