On 7th February 2024, Dr Ali Rida Rizek presented a research seminar at AMI entitiled ‘Between Ibn al-Junayd al-Iskāfī and al-Shaykh al-Ṭūsī: Legal disagreement (khilāf) in Early Imami hadith Compendia.’ In his presentation, he spoke about the various tools and methods employed by Shiʿi scholars such as al-Shaykh al-Ṭūsī and al-ʿAllāma al-Ḥillī and how they dealt with the legal and hadith disagreements regarding Ibn al-Junayd al-Iskāfī. Dr Rizek argued that while al-Shaykh al-Ṭūsī made use of claims to sideline Ibn al-Junayd al-Iskāfī, al-ʿAllāma al-Ḥillī was more accommodating to this diversity of thought.
