This manuscript is classified by Ibn al-Jazari in the science of hadith, and deals with the topic of “Al-Awali,” that is, hadiths whose chain of transmission has a small number of narrators. The author begins the book with praise and praise for God, then explains the virtue of the high chain of transmission and its importance among the imams of hadith, quoting sayings from major hadith scholars such as Yahya ibn Ma’in and Ahmad ibn Hanbal urging seeking it and considering it a closeness to God.
