Atlas

Chains of transmission from the Prophet, read as the sources give them.
About this atlas

The atlas holds the chains of transmission from the Prophet as the standard references and the classical sources record them: the Sufi orders, the chains of Qurʾān recitation, the teachers of the schools of law and ḥadīth, and the lines of the Prophet's family, with the places they spread and the living houses and teachers who carry them today. Every link shows its sources; where they differ, both readings are shown, and we do not rule on any community's claims. Ibn ʿArabī's own life, teachers and readers are on their own page.

ابن ذكوان

Ibn Dhakwān (ʿAbd Allāh b. Aḥmad)

Died Shawwāl 242 AH ((Ghāyat al-nihāya, which rejects 243); the OpenITI al-Nashr text reads 202 (line 3655), which conflicts with the birth year 173 it gives on the same line; al-Dānī (Taysīr) also gives 242, which supports Ghāyat and shows 202 in the OpenITI al-Nashr text is an error) · born 10 Muḥarram 173 AH (Ghāyat al-nihāya) · Damascus

How to read the marks
  • Two sources: a solid rule. Two independent references give the same link.
  • One source: a lighter rule, so labelled.
  • The community's own account: a dotted rule. The order tells it; we have not yet read it against a reference source.
  • A gap in the rule: the sources omit names between the two. The label says which.
  • The sources differ: tap the ≠ to read each reading with its source.
  • A ring: a spiritual link, without a meeting (uwaysī).
