الملخص الإنجليزي
This study aims to study and analyze the hadiths of Jamie Ibn Ja`far',
the most important book of the early Ibadhi scholars, then compare
themes with other sources of hadith; to shed light on the first stages in
how the Ibadis dealt with the Prophet's Sunnah in terms of narration
and body. The research questions were:
What is the importance of the Sunnah according to Ibn Ja`far?
What are the aspects of inference for the Sunnah in Jamie Ibn
Ja`far'?
What are the similarities and differences between the hadiths of Ibn
Ja`far' and other hadith books?
In order to answer these questions, the researcher first extrapolated all
the hadiths mentioned in the Jamie Ibn Ja`far and distinguished them
from the hadiths that added later to the book, then compared them with
their occurrence in the other books of the Hadith and analyzed their
terms.
Among the most prominent findings of the study:
- The Jamie Ibn Jaafar has a great position among the Omanis.

Jaafar after the Holy Qur'an.
- The researcher found 149 hadiths in Jamie Ibn Jaafar.

his book.
- The researcher found 11 hadith sources written after the era of Ibn
Ja`far that were unique to citing hadiths mentioned by Ibn Ja`far in his
book.
