The Muwatta' narrated by Yahya al-Laythi, with additions from al-Zuhri and al-Shibani

He is one of the great collections of Islam, and his noble books, containing a number of raised hadiths, and the stopped effects from the words of the companions and the followers and those after them, then he also includes a number of the author's efforts and his fatwas. And it was called Al-Muwatta because its author prepared it for the people, meaning he refined and paved it for them. It was narrated from Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, that he said: I presented my book to seventy jurists from the scholars of Medina, and all of them agreed with me on it, so I named it Al-Muwatta.
