Part of Ibn Bakawayh

Translation

This book is a hadith manuscript that includes a collection of narrated hadiths of the Prophet with their chains of transmission, compiled by Ibn Bakawayh. The hadiths deal with various topics, including beliefs, acts of worship, etiquette, morals, and temptations, such as denying contagion and ritual impurity, urging fasting on the White Days, the virtue of the Companions, signs of the Hour, rulings on purity and menstruation, and other rulings and sermons. The manuscript begins with a chain of narration of the hadith “There is no contagion or tirah” on the authority of Abu Hurairah, then follows it with other chain of narrations.
