HADITH NARRATION: AN ANALYTICAL STUDY THE SCHOLARLY ACTIVITIES OF THE PROPHET MUHAMMAD’S ﷺ BROTHERS-IN-LAW
Keywords:
Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, Brother-in-Law, Ummahat al-Mu'minin, Sahabah, RelativesAbstract
This research paper, titled "The Scholarly Role of the Prophet Muhammad'sﷺ In-Law Brothers in the Narration of Hadith / A Review of the Academic Activities of In-Law Brothers," investigates the significant contributions of the male siblings of the Mothers of the Believers (Ummahat al-Mu'minin) to Islamic scholarship, particularly in the field of Hadith transmission.
The study begins by defining the different categories of these brothers—full (Ḥaqīqī), paternal half (ʿAlātī), and maternal half (Akhyāfī)—establishing their specific familial relationships to the Prophet ﷺ. It then proceeds to provide a detailed examination of the religious and scholarly activities of key figures among them, such as Abdullah ibn Zamaʿah, Abdur Rahman ibn Abi Bakr, Abdullah ibn Umar, and Amir Muʿawiyah, drawing evidence from primary sources like Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim
The findings reveal that a considerable number of these in-law brothers were prominent Companions (Sahabah) and Successors (Tabi'in), who played vital roles in the preservation and dissemination of Prophetic traditions, jurisprudence (Fiqh), and Islamic leadership. The study concludes by offering recommendations to integrate this knowledge into educational curricula and public discourse to enhance understanding of the Prophet's ﷺ family and their invaluable services to Islam.
