Muslim view

While Sunni's believe that "the door to Ijtihad is sealed", the Shi'a do not concur in this conclusion. Ijtihad (Arabic اجتهاد) is a technical term of Islamic law that describes the process of making a legal decision by independent interpretation of the legal sources, the Quran and the Sunnah. ...

However, Shi'a do value their own collections as having been deemed to have a very high amount of Sahih narrations by many scholars through time. For example, Nahj al-Balagha is considered almost entirely authentic by all Shi'a scholars in all times, but for the sake of the principle, it is not said to contain only authentic hadith.
