Abstract: This paper, a study in Arabic historical and bio-bibliographical literature, traces the role and importance of the historian al-Madāʾinī’s (d. ca. 228/843–844) students and tradents in the transmission of his historical material (khabars). The article discusses the question to what extent the “audited transmission model” of Gregor SCHOELER is applicable to al-Madāʾinī and his circle. The implications of this study concern the whole Arabic historiography of the second–dthird/eighth–ninth centuries.
