Summary of Sahih Muslim Hadith 2013b
This narration reports the Hadith of Jabir through another chain with wording similar to the earlier report. The main teaching is about not sending children and animals out when the sun sets until the first dark part of the night has passed. Since this report is short, its main role is to support the same meaning through another route. The Hadith is easy to apply. It tells families to be more careful at sunset and the early part of night. It does not add extra rules beyond the wording connected to the report. For people searching for the Hadith about children at night, this narration is closely tied to the longer wording in Sahih Muslim 2013a.
What we learn from this hadith
- This narration supports the sunset safety teaching through another chain.
- The focus remains on children and animals at the start of night.
- The report encourages careful timing without adding new details.
