Taba Al-Tabi‘in
The Tābiʿū al-Tābʿīn ( ar, تَابِعُو ٱلتَّابِعِينَ, singular ar, تَابِعُ ٱلتَّابِعِينَ) is the generation after the Tābi‘ūn in Islam. The first generation of Muslims are known as the Sahabah or the companions of Muhammad. The second generation of Muslims which come after the ṣaḥābah are called '' Tābi‘ūn'' (also "the successors"). The third generation of Muslims coming after the '' Tābi‘ūn'', who knew at least one ''Tābi‘'', are called '' tābi‘ al-tābi‘īn''. The three generations make up the '' salaf'' of Islam. Definition according to the Sunnis The Sunnis define a ''Tābiʿ al-Tābʿīn'' as a Muslim who: # Saw at least one of the Tābiʿun. # Was rightly guided. (That would be, according to Sunnis, one who adheres to the beliefs and actions of the Ahlus Sunnah wal-Jama'ah). # And the one who died in that state. Sunnis consider ''the Tabi' al-Tabi'un '' as the best generation after the Tābiʿun. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Tabi‘un
The tābi‘ūn ( ar, اَلتَّابِعُونَ, also accusative or genitive tābi‘īn , singular ''tābi‘'' ), "followers" or "successors", are the generation of Muslims who followed the companions (''ṣaḥābah'') of the Islamic prophet Muhammad, and thus received their teachings secondhand. A ''tābi‘'' knew at least one ''ṣaḥābiyy''. As such, they played an important part in the development of Islamic thought and knowledge, and in the political development of the early caliphate. The next generation of Muslims after the ''tabi‘ūn'' are called the '' tābi‘ al-tabi‘īn'' . The first three generations of Muhammad’s followers make up the '' salaf'' of Islam. Sunni definition Muslims from the Sunni branch of Islam define a ''tābiʻ'' as a Muslim who: # Saw at least one of the companions of Muhammad # Was rightly-guided # One who died in that state. The Khawarij are therefore not referred to as tābiʻūn even though they saw many of Muhammad's com ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Al-Awza'i
Abū ʿAmr ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn ʿAmr al-ʾAwzāʿī ( ar, أبو عمرو عبدُ الرحمٰن بن عمرو الأوزاعي) (707–774) was an Islamic scholar, traditionalist and the chief representative and eponym of the ʾAwzāʿī school of Islamic jurisprudence. ʾAwzāʿī was referred to by his tribe "''ʾAwzā''" (الأوزاع), part of Banu Hamdan. Biography He was probably born in Baalbek (in modern-day Lebanon) in 707, although the biographer and historian Al-Dhahabi reports that Awzāʿī was originally from Sindh. Very little of al-Awzāʿī's writings survive, but his style of Islamic jurisprudence (''usul al-fiqh'') is preserved in Abu Yusuf's book ''Al-radd ʿala siyar al-Awzāʿī'', in particular his reliance on the "living tradition," or the uninterrupted practice of Muslims handed down from preceding generations. For Awzāʿī, this was the true Sunnah of Muhammad. Awzāʿī's school flourished in Syria, the Maghreb, and Al Andalus but wa ...
