Notes
The author tells us in his introduction, “The first thing the world concerned itself with after the Book of God was the Sunnahs of His Messenger, which clarified what God wanted from the outlines of His Book, and indicated its limits, and one of the surest instruments of the Sunnahs that aided them and led to their preservation was the knowledge of those who transmitted them from their Prophet, the Messenger of God, to all people, and preserved them for him, and they were his companions, the disciples, who called for them, and carried them out as advisers, seeking reward, until the religion was perfected by what they transmitted.” Then he points to The virtue of the Companions and the position in which they were placed in terms of justice, religion, and honesty, and that the Messenger of God favored a group of his companions with virtues. He singled out each one of them with a virtue, named him for it, and mentioned him in it. It is necessary to study their names and research their lives and conditions, in order to be guided by their guidance. A group of scholars have compiled books on this matter and classified them. I looked at much of what they wrote about it, and I saw that they had gone at length in some of that, and had repeated nouns in genealogies and sources of narrations. This is a lengthy matter for those who love to know what their names and knowledge can be relied upon. “I decided to compile this, concise it, and make it as close as possible to whoever wanted it. I mentioned the merits and status of those of merit among them, and explained their ranks as briefly as possible. In this book, I relied on the well-known books of people with knowledge of biographies and genealogies, and on well-known histories, upon which scholars relied in knowing the days of Islam and the lives of its people. I made it based on the letters of the dictionary, to make it easier for whoever seeks it, and to make it easier for the student to understand what he likes.” Then he refers to some of the sources he relied on, such as the history of Al-Waqidi. Al-Bukhari in the history of the hadith scholars, the history of Abu Abbas Muhammad bin Ishaq al-Sarraj, and the book of Abu Jaafar al-Uqaili. He begins his book by mentioning the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, and his biography. Then he mentions his companions, beginning with the chapter “My Father,” then the rest of the letters of the dictionary in a special Andalusian manner, which was followed later in Morocco. He mentions the kaf after the ta, then the lam, then the meem. Then he returns to the saad, then the sein, then the ain, then the ghayn, then the fa, then the qaf. Then he returns to the letter sein, then the ha, then the waw, then the ya’. Then he devotes a special book in order to those with nicknames. Also on the letters of the dictionary, this is followed by the Book of Women arranged in the same pattern, thus concluding the book. This book was mentioned in: Brockelmann: S. II 195. 277. S.I 628. _ G.I. 368. And Al-Qarawiyyin Al-Kubra 645 and 644.2. And Rabat General 49. And Dar Al-Kutub Al-Misriyah -... See the term Hadith and P. Boigues 148.
