The chronology presented here gives an understanding of the time difference and generation gaps
of famous names in early Islamic history, e.g., Imam Abu-Hanifah was early enough to have seen
Sahabah, while Imam Malik, Imam Shafi'i, and Imam Ahmad bin-Hambal had not met or seen any
Sahabah. Compare the time frame of Imam Bokhari & Imam Muslim with those of Imam Malik or
Imam Abu-Hanifah. See the times of 12 Imams of Isna-'ashari faith (The Twelvers).
Notes:
BH = Before Hijra
AH = After Hijra
CE = Common Era
