Ayyub b. Nuh b. Darraj al-Nakha'i, an Imami jurist and hadith transmitter, was born in Kufa, and his kunya was Abu l-Husayn.[1] According to Shi'a scholars of rijal, Ayyub b. Nuh was a companion of four infallible Imams (a): Imam al-Rida (a), Imam al-Jawad (a), Imam al-Hadi (a), and Imam al-Hasan al-'Askari (a), transmitting hadiths from them.[2] Al-Najashi and al-Kashshi describe him as trustworthy, a representative, and one who held a special position with Imam al-Hadi (a) and Imam al-Hasan al-Askari (a).[3] Correspondence between him and Imam al-Hadi (a) has also been transmitted.[4] According to al-Najashi, Ahmad b. Muhammad al-Barqi attributed the book Nawadir to Ayyub b. Nuh.[5] Hadiths narrated by him include those about the merits of visiting the infallible Imam and various jurisprudential topics such as cleanliness, divorce, prayer, marriage, and inheritance.[6] According to Ayatollah Khoei (d. 1992), Ayyub's name appears in the chain of transmission for 251 hadiths,[7] and Shi'a scholars of rijal such as al-Najashi, al-Kashshi, al-Tusi, and al-Barqi all regard him as trustworthy.[8]

In a hadith from Imam al-Hasan al-Askari (a), it is stated that Ayyub is from the people of Paradise.[9] According to al-Najashi, he was pious and very devoted in worship.[10]

Darraj, to be the judge of Kufa, a companion of Imam al-Sadiq (a) and Imam al-Kazim (a), and a person of sound faith.[15] The tomb of Nuh (a) is located near Karbala, amidst palm groves, in the lands of the Al Mas'ud tribe.[16] Additionally, Jamil b. Darraj, Ayyub's uncle, is regarded as a trustworthy individual, a representative, and a companion of Imam al-Sadiq (a).[17] According to 'Ali Namazi Shahrudi (d. 1985) in his book Mustadrakāt 'ilm rijal al-hadith, Ayyub's two sons, Hasan and Muhammad, and his grandson, Ahmad b.
