چکیده:
Sulaym bin Qays al-Hilali is a name that has become famous due to the attribution of a book to him. The investigation and study of Sulaym bin Qays is possible from two perspectives: the first perspective does not only lack a critical look at historical narrations and legacies; rather, it is always seeking to confirm and approve them. Looking at Sulaym bin Qays from this perspective arises from the contents of the book of Sulaym itself and is documented by words attributed to him and the sole narrator of the book, Aban bin Abi Ayyash. The second perspective, since it "proceeds within the framework of historical research, inevitably chooses the critical method which is based on the orbit of rejecting or accepting historical narrations and on realistic principles." Looking at Sulaym bin Qays from this perspective stems from historical realities, independent and authentic narrations—both historical and non-historical—and a critical detailed view. In the first and second parts of the article, the author presents both perspectives and, at the end, presents his conclusions and concludes that the existence of a person named Sulaym in history is a matter of reflection and doubt.
