Burayd ibn Muʿāwiya al-ʿIjlī (Arabic: بُرَیدِ بْن معاویة العجلي) (before 148 AH / 765 AD) was a Shi'a jurists and a famous disciple of Muhammad al-Baqir and later Ja'far al-Sadiq.
Burayd's father, Mu'awiya ibn Abi Hakim Hatim, was from a family of 'Ijli Arabs who immigrated to Kufa.
After the death of Muhammad al-Baqir, he benefited from the presence of Ja'far al-Sadiq for some time in Medina and became one of his special companions too.
Burayd died in 150 AH according to the narration of Ali Ibn Faddal, but Najashi considered his death during the lifetime of al-Sadiq to be more correct.
[1] Al-Baqir praised him (along with Abu Basir Moradi, Muhammad bin Muslim, and Zurarah ibn A'yun) as worthy of the paradise.
