If a person with a seemingly good character falsified a hadith by writing the names of people who have passed away (in the chain before him), and if those people lived in the same area and lived at the same time as each other, how would authenticators realise that the hadith is fabricated?

What if they seem trustworthy but are a hypocrite? – user39315 Jul 8 '20 at 15:08

There are signs of hypocrisy, and that's partly what being trustworthy means: you don't portray any signs of hypocrisy and are pious. – The Z Jul 8 '20 at 17:40

See for example How can scholars of Jarh and ta'adil be certain about the identity of a narrator?. – Medi1Saif♦ Jul 23 '20 at 17:14
