Book by Ibn Hibban
Sahih Ibn Hibbaan Author Muhammad ibn Hibban ibn Ahmad al-Tamimi al-Busti Language Arabic Subject hadith
Ṣaḥīḥ Ibn Ḥibbān (صحيح ابن حبان) is a collection of hadith by Sunni scholar Ibn Hibban . It has the distinction of being one of small number of collections intended by the respective authors to contain only authentic hadith . The author of this Sahih is Abu Hatim Muhammad ibn Hibban ibn Ahmad al-Tamimi al-Busti [ar ] , from Bust in Khorasan in present-day southern Afghanistan [ 1] (former name of Helmand province capital was bost or bust , its new name is Lashkargah ).[ 2] He was a prominent Shafi'i hadith specialist and prolific author who died in 965 CE.[ 3]
Overview
The actual name of this collection is al Musnad al Sahih al-Taqasim wa al-Anwa` , however, it is commonly referred to as Sahih ibn Hibban . The author utilized an innovative method in the arrangement of this work as it is not arranged in topical chapters nor is it based upon a musnad arrangement and is therefore difficult to navigate.[ 3] Instead, it was arranged first by bab , or chapter, and then under each chapter, by naw` , or type. The book opens with a lengthy introduction.[ 4]
The Sahih remains in its entirety as of the late Nineteenth Century or early Twentieth Century, according to al-Kattani, who died in 1926.[ 3]
Description
The book contains almost seven and a half thousand (7500) hadiths according to Al-Maktaba Al-Shamela .[ 5]
Authenticity
According to al-Kattani, "it has been said that Ibn Hibban, after ibn Khuzaymah, authored the most authentic hadith collection , after Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim ".[ 3] However, al-Suyuti spoke more definitively when saying that Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah was the most authentic collection after Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim , followed by Sahih Ibn Hibban which, in turn, was more authentic than Al-Mustadrak alaa al-Sahihain ,[ 6] making Sahih Ibn Hibban the fourth most authentic hadith collection in Suyuti's view.
