Abū Baṣīr Layth ibn al-Bakhtarī al-Murādī (Arabic:ابوبصیر لیث بن البختری المرادی) known as Abu Basir al-Moradi or simply Abu Basir was a famous Shia jurist (faqih) and traditionist and an associate of Muhammad al-Baqir and Ja'far al-Sadiq.
Al-Sadiq is believed to have told Moradi, Zurarah, Burayd, and Muhammad ibn Muslim that they were the "tent pegs of the world",[1] and that the prophetic hadiths would have been lost without them.
Agarqoofi's narrative indicates that Abu Basir Moradi did not believe in the Imamate of Musa al-Kazim and the words of Ibn Ghada'iri, a scholar of the 12th century, indicate that his religion was not direct.
Regarding his relationship with al-Kazem, although Shaykh Tusi has listed him among the companions of al-Kazim in his Al-Fihrist and al-Rijal, but this point has not been confirmed in the words of Barqi, Kashshi and Najashi.
In another narration through Ali ibn Asbat, Abu Basir Moradi is considered one of the four people who were the adornment and honor of the Ahl al-Bayt in life and death.
This book has been used to a limited extent by Hadith scholars such as Barqi in al-Mahasin, Kulayni in Kitab al-Kafi, Ibn Babawayh in Man La Yahduruhu al-Faqih, Tusi in Tahdhib, and Al-Istibsar.
