علی بن حسین مسعودی: تفاوت میان نسخه‌ها

دانشنامه اسلام، امامیه بودن مسعودی را غیر قابل انکار می‌داند. در عین حال مذهب فقهی او را به احتمال زیاد شافعی معرفی می‌کند. به گفته دانشنامه اسلام نویسندگان شیعه به اتفاق مسعودی را هم-مذهب خود می‌دانند. اما در میان نویسندگان سنّی برخی وی را سنّی معتزلی و برخی وی را شیعه می‌دانند.<ref> Even if it is decided that this “anti-history” or this “sacred history” of the twelve Imāms is apocryphal, and speculation on the titles of the works catalogued above under the nos. 13-18 is abandoned, it is impossible to deny the S̲h̲īʿism or, more accurately the Imāmism, of al-Masʿūdī. S̲h̲īʿī authors are unanimous in considering him one of their number, and a reading of the Murūd􀀀j􀀀 largely confirms this opinion. Among the Sunnīs it is quite curious that al-Subkī (loc. cit.) and Ibn Tag􀀀h􀀀rībardī (Nud􀀀j􀀀ūm, iii, 315-6) follow al-D􀀀h􀀀ahabī in seeing him only as a Muʿtazilī, while Ibn Taymiyya (Minhād􀀀j􀀀 al-sunna, ii, 129-31) is one of the few who recognises his S̲h̲īʿism, and Ibn Ḥad̲j̲ar al-ʿAsḳalānī reconciles all points of view in pointing out, quite rightly (Lisān al-Mīzān, iv, 224-5), that his writings “abound with signs showing that he was S̲h̲īʿī and Muʿtazilī”. Al-Masʿūdī in fact acknowledges this dual allegiance when he declares 6M, § 2256) that he has chosen some Muʿtazilī doctrines for his own use (cf. above, no. 20), and such an eclecticism was by no means astonishing in the 4th/10th century. As for his mad􀀀h􀀀hab, it would seem to be largely S̲h̲āfiʿī. but nothing can be definitely asserted and it is possible that, in his treatises of fiḳh, he confined himself to dealing with comparative law " al-Masʿūdī."

به گفته جان هیوود، مسعودی به همه مذاهب از جمله هندو، زرتشتی، یهودیت و مسیحیت علاقه نشان داده است ولی‌ولی در نگارش تاریخ خود به صورت غیر نقادانه آنچه را می‌‌شنیدهمی‌شنیده نقل می‌‌کردهمی‌کرده است.<ref> He displayed interest in all religions, including Hinduism and Zoroastrianism, as well as Judaism and Christianity. But he tended to reproduce uncritically what he heard; John A. Haywood, Britanica Online </ref>▼
