This collection of hadiths is the earliest extant musannaf. The author came from Yemen and studied under Ma'mar and Ibn Jurayj. The traditions in the Musannaf come mainly from three people: Ma'mar, Ibn Jurayj, and Thawri. There are also relatively small numbers of traditions from Ibn 'Uyayna, Abu Hanifa, Malik ibn. Anas, and dozens of other people. The aforementioned authorities, Ibn Jurayj (d. 150/767) and Ma'mar b. Rashid (d. 153/770), were both said to have been compilers of musannafs. [Edit]
