6 Dec 2020video Why don't Sunni imams like Malik and Abu Hanifa transmit from Imam Jafar al-Sadiq? Mufti Abu Layth's theory is that the early imams of the Ahl al-Bayt were for the most part as the Shia describe them, so Malik and Abu Hanifa, though respectful of them, did not transmit from them because it would have caused a political storm. He adds that this does not make the Shia theological claims more authentic.
