Function of Short Stories in Thematic Narration of Common Jurisprudential Hadiths

The comparison of Shia and Sunni jurisprudential hadiths shows that a significant part of Shia jurisprudential hadiths have been almost completely narrated in the form of short stories in Sunni hadith communities. The characters of these short stories are people like Abu Hurairah, Ibn Omar, Ayesha and Ibn Abbas who, in many ways, cannot be narrators of a large volume of prophetic tradition. The accuracy in the history of Shia and Sunni hadith and the transformation of the hadith transmission process from storytelling in the first century to the transmission of jurisprudential traditions in the second century shows the influence of retribution on the quality of the process of hadith transmission and the chain of transmission in the second century Hijri. Retribution had a deep political-religious influence in the society of Iraq and the Levant. The act of retribution had caused the formation of a community with special demands in Iraq and the Levant, which forced the scholars to use the method of narrating jurisprudential hadiths in the form of short stories to revive the prophetic tradition.
