It concentrates on the Tabiu’un, the generation after the companions, who lived in Madina itself, may Allah be pleased with all of them and have mercy on them. The study of Madina in the early period assumes great importance since it is well known that the first three generations after the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, are considered to be the best generations, and the school of the people of the Madina was known to be the soundest of schools. This was because the people of Madina confined themselves to following in the footsteps of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, more then the people of any other region did.
