Samra ibn Jundab

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Samra ibn Jundab was a sahaba of Muhammad.

The Sheikhs of the Mu'tazilites and their Imams and the Hanafi ulema generally reject the hadith narrated by Samra ibn Jundab. Moreover, in his commentary on Muslim's Sahih, Volume IV, Nadwi emphasizes this point:

"Imam Abu Hanifa said, 'The companions of the Prophet were generally pious and just. I accept every hadith with evidence narrated by them, but I do not accept the hadith whose source is Abu Huraira, Anas ibn Malik, or Samra ibn Jundab."
