داود بن كثير الرقي
Dawud ibn Kathir al-Raqqi
Dawud ibn Kathir al-Raqqi kept company with al-Ṣādiq (ʿa) and al-Kāẓim (ʿa) and was of al-Raqqah. The books are divided about him: Rijāl al-Ṭūsī holds him reliable, while Rijāl al-Najāshī weakens him.
When he lived
The Prophet, then the twelve Imams in order in gold: al-Ṣādiq (ʿa), al-Kāẓim (ʿa)
