Musannaf Abd Al-Razzaq
''Musannaf Abd al-Razzaq al-Sanʿani'' () is an early hadith collection compiled by the Yemeni hadith scholar ʽAbd al-Razzaq al-Sanʽani (744–827). As a collection of the '' musannaf'' genre, it contains over 18,000 traditions arranged in topical order. History Compilation Abd al-Razzaq al-Sanʿani likely compiled the ''musannaf'' in the second half of the second Hijri century after studying under Ma'mar ibn Rashid, Ibn Jurayj and Sufyan al-Thawri during their respective visits to Yemen. In a sample of 3,810 traditions analysed by Harald Motzki, the majority were largely transmitted from the three. As these three had compiled their own individual written hadith collections, al-Sanʿani's ''musannaf'' is considered to be a collation of older works. There are also relatively small numbers of traditions from Sufyan ibn ʽUyaynah, Abu Hanifa and Malik ibn Anas, among many others.

''Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah'' () is one of the well-known musannaf (topical collections of hadith), compiled by Ibn Abi Shaybah (159H-235H / 775–849 CE) who curated reports of Muhammad, his predecessors and companions.

Kutub Al-Sittah
(), also known as () are the six canonical hadith collections of Sunni Islam. They were all compiled in the 9th and early 10th centuries, roughly from 840 to 912 CE and are thought to embody the Sunnah of Muhammad. The books are the of al-Bukhari (), the of Muslim ibn al-Hajjaj (), the of Abu Dawud (), the of al-Tirmidhi (), the of al-Nasa'i (), and the of Ibn Majah () as the sixth book, though some (particularly the Malikis and Ibn al-Athir) instead listed the of Malik ibn Anas () as the sixth book, and other scholars list of al-Daraqutni () as the sixth book. Sunan ibn Majah largely won out as the sixth canonical book because its content has less overlap with the other five compared with its two contenders. The two pre-eminent works among the Six, the collections of al-Bukhari and Muslim (also the only two compilations which aimed to only include ' authenticated' hadith), are known as the ''Sahihayn''.

Ijazah
An ''ijazah'' (, "permission", "authorization", "license"; plural: ''ijazahs'' or ''ijazat'') is a license authorizing its holder to transmit a certain text or subject, which is issued by someone already possessing such authority. It is particularly associated with transmission of Islamic religious knowledge. The license usually implies that the student has acquired this knowledge from the issuer of the ''ijaza'' through first-hand oral instruction, although this requirement came to be relaxed over time. An ''ijaza'' providing a chain of authorized transmitters going back to the original author often accompanied texts of ''hadith'', ''fiqh'' and '' tafsir''; but also appeared in mystical, historical, and philological works, as well as literary collections. While the ''ijaza'' is primarily associated with Sunni Islam, the concept also appears in the hadith traditions of Twelver Shia. George Makdisi, professor of oriental studies, theorized that the ''ijazah'' was the origin of ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
