Most Islamic scholars have paid great attention to the hadiths of the Prophet (peace be upon him) since the Arabs first began authoring in this field. They focused on the authenticity of the chain of transmission (isnad) and the narration, innovating a new science unprecedented by others, which is the science of 'Al-Jarh wa al-Ta'dil' (Criticism and Praise). This science investigates the veracity of narrators and traces their biographies to ensure the hadith matches what the Prophet (peace be upon him) said verbatim, including his hand gestures and facial expressions while speaking. However, few have focused on the rhetoric of the hadith itself and its literary quality.
