Jabir b. Abd Allah al-Ansari: Difference between revisions

According to the sources of Sunni Muslims, Jabir has narrated 1540 hadith, [[Sahih al-Bukhari]] and [[Sahih Muslim]] both accord with 58 hadiths. [[Ahmad ibn Hanbal]] has collected hadiths which were narrated by Jabir. According to Abu Abd al-Rahman ‘Abd Allah ibn Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Hanbal, the hand written [[musnad]] (collection of hadith) of Jabir ibn ‘Abd Allah is preserved in Morocco, al-Khazanah of Rabat, which is probably hadiths narrated by Jabir in musnad of Ahmad ibn Hanbal. Husayn Wathiqi also has collected the narrations of Jabir from Shi'a sources and published them in the book Jabir ibn Abd Allah Ansari life and musnad.

[[Sahifa of Jabir]] is the most important work of Jabir, which is an example among the oldest works on hadith which was collected by Sulayman ibn Qeys Yashkari. Because Sulayman died untimely, other narrators have quoted hadith from Sahifa without [[qira'a]] and [[sama']]. Shahid Ali Pasha collection contains an edition of Sahifa which is situated in the Suleymaniye library of [[Istanbul]].
