[edit] Definition

If an isnad lacks the Sahaba link, it is called a Mursal. However, if it is broken somewhere else, it is called Munqati.

A hadith that seems to be muttasil (continuous), but one of the reporters is known to have never heard hadiths from his immediate authority, even though they lived at the same time, the isnad is Munqati.

It is also applied when someone says "a man told me" ^[1].
