Sahih Muslim
(In-Book) ⓘ
According to Islamic tradition, this hadith collection was compiled by Muslim ibn al-Ḥajjāj (817-875 AD), a native of Nīshāpūr in modern-day Iran. It is claimed that Muslim's collection was compiled after investigation of 300,000 traditions across Arabia, Egypt, Syria and Iraq. Like al-Bukhārī, he provided full accounts of chains of narration (isnad) for each report. As well as being numbered among the books of the Sunni canon (Kutub al-Sittah), this collection is one of only two given the honorific descriptor, 'sahih' (authentic).
Each collection of Hadith are indexed under various different reference systems. Below are links according to the 'In-Book' reference system, see also 'Reference' and 'USC-MSA'.
