The Zaydi scholar, Yusuf Abdul'ilah Ad-Dahyani al-Hassani, may Allah grant him success, addresses some points
concerning the science of Hadith within the Zaydi school in this post of his. The post addresses two assertions
which have been levelled against the madhab. The first is that the school does not have any early books of ‘ilm alRijal, and the second is that it does not have the necessary prerequisites to authenticate hadiths.
The Shaykh’s response is as follows:

One of the most blessed practices in the month of Ramadan is the standing in the prayer during the night. It is narrated that the Prophet, peace be upon him and his progeny, said:
((Whoever prays 8 units in the night and the odd prayer (al-witr), and continues to do so until they meet Allah, Allah will open 12 doors of Paradise for them and they will be able to enter whatever door s/he wants)).
He, peace be upon him and his progeny, is also reported to have said:

Says Imam al-Qāsim bin Ibrāhīm:
{All Praise is due to Allah}
It is gratitude to Allah for His blessings and beneficence.
It is praise of Allah and the exultation of Him in this sense.
From “praise” (al-hamd) is derived: praiseworthy and laudable, hamīd.
Likewise, from “generosity” (al-jawd) is derived: generous and majīd.

Usually, after discussing the issue of the explicit appointment of Ali (عليه السلام) the next question that usually arises is the Zaydi position on the first three Caliphs. Below is an excerpt from an aqeeda commentary Kitaab al-Idaah fi Sharh al-Misbaah:
Regarding the judgment concerning those who preceded Amir al-Mumineen (عليه السلام) in the imamate, such as Abu Bakr, Umar and Uthmaan, the consensus of the Prophet’s Descendants holds that they were in error when they

The Zaydis have a set criteria in accepting or rejecting hadîths and narrated statements:
1. Contradicting the Qur’ân—The Zaydis wholly reject any narrated report that clearly contradicts the Book of Allah.
