WHOLESALE | Al-Isabah fi Tamyiz Al-Sahabah (16 Vols) – Ibn Hajar Al-'Asqalani

Al-Isabah fi Tamyiz Al-Sahabah is the greatest and most comprehensive encyclopaedia ever written on the biographies of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, authored by the eminent hadith master and historian Al-Hafiz Ahmad ibn 'Ali ibn Hajar Al-'Asqalani. Considered the definitive reference in its field, this monumental work gathers and critically analyses the lives of thousands of individuals connected to the noble generation of the Sahabah, distinguishing those who genuinely attained the honour of companionship from those mistakenly attributed to it.

Building upon and refining the works of earlier scholars such as Ibn 'Abd al-Barr, Ibn al-Athir, and Abu Nu'aym, Ibn Hajar carefully examines historical reports, chains of narration, genealogies, and biographical sources to establish the status of each Companion. He discusses their acceptance of Islam, narrations of hadith, participation in major events, dates of death, lineage, virtues, and scholarly discussions surrounding disputed cases, making the work an unparalleled resource in the sciences of hadith and Islamic history.

Regarded as one of the crowning achievements of classical Islamic scholarship, Al-Isabah fi Tamyiz Al-Sahabah remains an indispensable reference for scholars, researchers, students of hadith, and anyone studying the lives of the noble Companions of the Prophet ﷺ.

Presented here in a magnificent 16-volume Arabic edition, Al-Isabah fi Tamyiz Al-Sahabah is an essential addition to every serious Islamic library and one of the most authoritative works ever produced in the field of 'Ilm al-Rijal and the biographies of the Sahabah.
