An overview of Hadith schools shows that the influential characters of these schools have not all been inhabitants of the school sites. Usually, authorities and traditionists simultaneously attended several schools and were busy learning and teaching there. It is quite evident that Muslim scholars had special interest in and concern for Hadith – seeking trips as early as the age of companions suffering numerous hardships. We witness the active presence and influence of travelers seeking Hadith in most Muslim cities. Following Makka and Madina which have been the focal attention of travelers due to their religious centrality and assembly of Muslims, Kufa and Basra have played a particular role in this regard. They have attracted the traditionists of other territories leaving mutual effect on each other’s enrichment.
