Along the centuries, another method of classification emerged. According to this method, the first letter of Hadiths sentences is the criterion of the classification and the purpose is proposing an alphabetic order of Hadiths. The oldest known example of this kind of hadith books are some Shi'a texts which have been written based on this order such as ''Jami' al-Ahadith'' of Ja'far b. Ahmad b. Razi (included the prophet's traditions), ''[[Ghurar al-hikam (book)|Ghurar al-hikam]]'' of Abu al-Fath Amudi (included Imam 'Ali's (a) traditions). Likewise, from 10th century/15th-16th centuries, it is used in the recognition of Hadiths in Sunni's Majami', an example of which is ''al-Jami' al-Saghir'' of [[al-Sayuti]]. | Along the centuries, another method of classification emerged.
