Abstract

81 political tendencies prevailing in the community of Muslims in the decade from about 133 to 143 A.H. (p. 53). This corresponds with my analysis of the works of Musa b. 'Uqba and of Halifa b. lJayyät, with the significant difference that the lists of persons constitute an essential element of those two works, whereas they are only « inserted here and there in Ibn Ishaq. Professor Sellheim attributes the rejection of those legendary and politic- ally tainted materials by the authorities of Medina, particularly Mdlik, to « Missgunst und Unverständnis, Neid und Eifersucht,? (p, 34). According to him, « der Medinenser Ibn Ishaq musste seine Vaterstadt verlassen, weil eine streng auf Autoritdton verteilte Tradition seinem ... sehr viel weiter gestreuten Material keinen Raum liess » (p, 90). Very well (although I do not agree with this description of the tradition of the school of Medina), but this corresponds to the attitude of the ancient schools of law towards the rising tide of traditions from the Prophet, and there is no reason to attribute it to envy, blindness, and jealousy.
