As-Sunan al-Kubra, (Arabic: سنن الكبرى), is a hadith book collected by Imam Al-Nasa'i (214 – 303 AH),[1][2][3] not to be confused with the same titled book by Imam Al-Bayhaqi.

Description

As-Sunan al-Kubra is the larger collection of the Sunan al-Nasa'i, having almost twelve thousand (12000) hadiths compared to the almost six thousand (6000) hadiths in the summarised version.[4] The shorter collection is considered the next most authentic book of hadith (narrations of Muhammad) after the Sahihain (Sahih al-Bukhari & Sahih Muslim) within the six books, by most scholars of hadith.[1][5]

Quote: "We can discern three strata of the Sunni hadith canon. The perennial core has been the Sahihayn. Beyond these two foundational classics, some fourth/tenth-century scholars refer to a four-book selection that adds the two Sunans of Abu Dawud (d. 275/889) and al-Nasa'i (d. 303/915). The Five Book canon, which is first noted in the sixth/twelfth century, incorporates the Jami' of al-Tirmidhi (d. 279/892). Finally the Six Book canon, which hails from the same period, adds either the Sunan of Ibn Majah (d. 273/887), the Sunan of al-Daraqutni (d. 385/995) or the Muwatta' of Malik b. Anas (d. 179/796). Later hadith compendia often included other collections as well.' None of these books, however, has enjoyed the esteem of al-Bukhari's and Muslim's works."
