'''Dāwūd b. Nuʿmān''' (Arabic: {{ia|داود بن نعمان}}) was a [[Twelver | '''Dāwūd b. Nuʿmān''' (Arabic: {{ia|داود بن نعمان}}) was a [[Twelver Shi'a]] transmitter of hadith in the 2nd/[[8th century]] whose name is among those who transmitted hadiths from [[Imam al-Sadiq (a)]] and [[Imam al-Kazim (a)]]. Some scholars of [[rijal]] (biographical evaluation) have not considered him [[thiqa|reliable]], but some reliable sources have quoted from him. | ||

Family of Dawud were Nakha'i from [[Kufa]] and were in Wila' covenant with Bani Hashim. Dawud b. Nu'man was also known as Anbari which seemingly refers to al-Anbar city where he lived, near [[Euphrates]], 10 Farsakhs from Baghdad. [[Al-Kashshi]] has mentioned him with the title of Bayya' al-Anmat (Arabic: {{ia|بیّاع الأنماط}}, seller of carpets), perhaps referring to his job which was selling carpet. | Family of Dawud were Nakha'i from [[Kufa]] and were in Wila' covenant with Bani Hashim.

Kashshi has praised Dawud in Khulasa al-aqwal with good qualities. Allama Hilli has also considered him reliable. But, he has not been considered so in other books of rijal. | Kashshi has praised Dawud in Khulasa al-aqwal with good qualities. Allama Hilli has also considered him reliable.

Najashi first mentions Ali b. Nu'man A'lam, the smaller brother of Dawud reliable and then says that Dawud was better than his brother. Some have considered Allama Hilli's support of Dawud due to the mentioned speech of Najashi. | Najashi first mentions [[Ali b.

But, some others believe that Najashi's word does not mean as a support for him, and by the word “'Uluww” [elevation, promotion], Najashi meant promotion in level, speaking of which is common among scholars of rijal. The support for this opinion is Najashi's word in biography of Dawud b. Nu'man when he describes Dawud b. Nu'man using the word “Akbar” [bigger] which refers to him being older than Ali. | But, some others believe that Najashi's word does not mean as a support for him, and by the word “'Uluww” [elevation, promotion], Najashi meant promotion in level, speaking of which is common among scholars of rijal.

Since Allama Hilli had access to the books of Ali b. Hakam, Sa'd b. 'Abd Allah, Ibn 'Uqda and others, later scholars referred to for checking reliability of people, some consider his support for reliability of person as proof. An evidence for this opinion is that no problem has occurred to those chains of hadiths in which Dawud b. Nu'man is mentioned and Ibn Abi 'Umayr and other reliable sources of hadiths have narrated from him. | Since Allama Hilli had access to the books of Ali b. Hakam, Sa'd b.

Tusi has mentioned Dawud among the companions of Imam al-Sadiq (a). However, Najashi has doubted about Narating from Imam (a) by Dawud which may have been because most of the hadiths of Dawud are transmitted by one or two people after Imam (a). But, his direct hadiths from Imam (a) is against such as doubt. | Tusi has mentioned Dawud among the companions of Imam al-Sadiq (a).
