محمد بن علي الباقر عليه السلام

Muḥammad al-Bāqir (ʿa)

The rijāl books do not assess the Imams. They file narrators by which Imam they transmitted from, so this page gathers the chains rather than a verdict.

2,943 narrations 45% of them in Al-Kāfi

Every narration whose chain this database resolves to him — the figure his seal draws. Resolved name by name, so a namesake of his is not among them.
