[[Sayyid Ni'matullah al-Jaza'iri al-Shushtari]] (d. 1112 A.H./ 1701) was an Akhbari scholar, but he attempted a lot to appreciate Usuli scholars and their proponents.
[[Sayyid Ni'matullah al-Jaza'iri al-Shushtari]] (d. 1112 A.H./ 1701) was an Akhbari scholar, but he attempted a lot to appreciate Usuli scholars and their proponents.


Some people have considered [[Mulla Muhsin al-Fayd al-Kashani]] (d. 1091 A.H./ 1680-1681) as an Akhbari scholar. He says: "we follow the [[Qura'n]] and [[hadith]]s, and we do not know anything else". Though in this text he seems to oppose [[Sufism]], rather than [[ijtihad]] and usul, he also maintains that the minds of ordinary (non-infallible or non-ma'sum) people are imperfect and unreliable. In some of his work, such as ''[[al-Kalimat al-maknuna]]'', al-Fayd has explicitly attacked ijtihad and the method of usul. A consideration of such remarks assures us that he has tendencies to Akhbarism. He holds that Usulis, by establishing the method of usul, have made divine obligations too difficult—they have issued verdicts about things that God did not say anything about, in fact it was part of divine wisdom to remain silent about those things.
