A guide to the sources

The Qur’an, hadith collections and later biographies are different kinds of evidence. The Qur’an is not organized as a dated biography. A hadith reference identifies a specific transmitted report; its evaluation can differ between scholarly traditions. Historical accounts also preserve conflicting dates and interpretations. These distinctions remain visible in the articles.
