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.
In this collection
Counted from the narrations and chains this database holds — not a record of everything he transmitted.
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.

My father (rh) narrated to us. He said: `Ali b. Ibrahim b. Hashim narrated to us from his father from `Ali b. al-Hakam from al-Mufaddal b. Salih from Jabir from Abi Ja`far (as). He said: When this verse, “And brought, that Day, is Hell” (89:23) was revealed, the Messenger of Allah (s) was asked about that, so he said: The Trustworthy Spirit informed me that when Allah – and there is no god except Him – raises the creation, and brings the firsts and the lasts together, He will bring forth Hell, which be steered by one thousand reins, and each rein will be held by one thousand rough, severe angels. It has a clunk, rage, a wail, and a howl. It wails with a wail. Had Allah not delayed them for the Judgment, it would have consumed everything. Then, a flare will emerge from it that will surround the creatures, both the righteous and the transgressor. Allah has not created a servant from the servants of Allah, nor an angel, nor a prophet, except that he will call out: “My self, my self!” But you, O Prophet of Allah, will call out: “My Nation, my Nation!” Then, a Path will be placed upon it that is thinner than a hair and sharper than a sword. There will be three arches upon it: the first will be safety and mercy, the second will be prayer, and the third will be the justice of the Lord of the Worlds, there is no god except Him. They will be made to pass upon it, then safety and mercy will trap them. If they overcome that, then prayer will trap them. If they overcome that, then the end is to the Lord of the Worlds, and that is His saying
“Surely, your Lord is in observation” (89:14). The people will be upon the Path, and they will hang from it with the…
