Question 1 Report

The following are reporters of hadith except
Answer Details

In the context of hadith, reporters are those individuals who have compiled, collected, or narrated the sayings, actions, and approvals of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Among the options you have provided, three are known as compilers of hadith:


  • Tirmidh: He is known for compiling the collection called "Jami' at-Tirmidhi," which is one of the six major hadith collections in Sunni Islam.
  • ibn Majah: He is the compiler of "Sunan Ibn Majah," another one of the six major hadith collections in Sunni Islam.
  • Bukhari: He compiled "Sahih al-Bukhari," which is one of the most trusted and revered collections of hadith.

ibn Sina, however, was not a collector or reporter of hadith. He was a highly influential Persian polymath known for his contributions to philosophy, medicine, and science, among other fields. His works, particularly in medicine, were standard texts in both medieval Islamic and European universities. Therefore, ibn Sina is the exception in the context of reporters of hadith.
