Greater Than The Tabi’un But Less Than The Sahabah (RadhiAllahu Anhum)
Explained by Shaykh Uthaymeen
Question: Some of the people say that An Najashi was a companion Mukhadram; what is the authenticity of this?
Shaykh Uthaymeen: No; this incorrect. This is not valid. He was not a companion. He did not meet the Messenger عليه الصلاة والسلام. But he was a Mukhadram as it relates to his level. And this is a level between the companions and the Tabi’un; this is the meaning of Mukhadram. Thus he was greater than the Tabi’un but less than the companions. These are the three levels.
Translator’s note: Al Hafidh Ibn al-?ala? (643H) said in ‘Sciences of Hadith’: Mukhadram (مُخَضْرَ مٌ ) is a person from the Tabi’un who was alive during the pre-Islamic days of ignorance and during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah صلى اٌلله عٌليه وٌسلم. They entered into Islam but they never met the Prophet Muhammad صلى اٌلله عٌليه وٌسلم. Imam Muslim mentioned there were twenty individuals who fit this category. From them were:
أَبُو عَمْرٍو الشَّيْبَانِ ي ، وَسُوَيْدُ بْنُ غَفَلَةَ الْكِنْدِ ي ، وَعَمْرُو بْنُ مَيْمُونٍ الَْْوْدِ ي ، وَعَبْدُ خَيْرِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الْخَيْوَانِ ي ، وَأَبُو عُثْمَانَ النَّهْدِ ي ،
وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مُ ل ، وَأَبُو الْحَلَالِ الْعَ تَكِ ي رَبِيعَةُ بْنُ زُاَ ررَ ة
And from them not mentioned by Muslim were:
أَبُو مُسْلِمٍ الْخَوْلََنِ ي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ ثُوَبَ ، وَالَْْحْنَفُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ

The Prophet ﷺ said:
“Make things easy and do not make things difficult. Give glad tidings and do not repel people..”
