محمد بن سنان
Muhammad ibn Sinan
Muhammad ibn Sinan kept company with al-Kāẓim (ʿa), al-Riḍā (ʿa) and al-Jawād (ʿa) and was of Kufa and died in 220 AH. Kitāb al-Ḍuʿafāʾ, Rijāl al-Najāshī and Rijāl al-Ṭūsī weaken him.
When he lived
The Prophet, then the twelve Imams in order in gold: al-Kāẓim (ʿa), al-Riḍā (ʿa), al-Jawād (ʿa)
