以下几种主要的圣训类型非常重要:

The following principal types of hadith are important:

• Marfu'（"升至上溯"）：指归于先知的圣训。例如，某位传述者（无论是圣门弟子、再传弟子或其他人）说："安拉的使者说……"例如，《萨希赫·布哈里》中的第一段圣训如下：布哈里 === 胡迈迪 'Abdullah b. al-Zubair === 苏fyan === Yahya b. Sa'id al-Ansari === Muhammad b. Ibrahim al-Taymi === 'Alqamah b. Waqqas al-Laithi，他说：我听到 'Umar b. al-Khattab 在讲坛上说："我听到安拉的使者ﷺ说：行为的报酬取决于意图，每个人都将得到他所意图的报酬；因此，无论谁迁徙是为了世俗的利益，或是为了娶一个女人，他的迁徙只是为了他所迁徙的目的。"

• Marfu' - "elevated": A narration from the Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace), e.g. a reporter (whether a Companion, Successor or other) says, "The Messenger of Allah said ..." For example, the very first hadith in Sahih al-Bukhari is as follows: Al- Bukhari === Al-Humaidi 'Abdullah b. al-Zubair === Sufyan === Yahya b. Sa'id al-Ansari === Muhammad b. Ibrahim al-Taymi === 'Alqamah b. Waqqas al-Laithi, who said: I heard 'Umar b. al- Khattab saying, while on the pulpit, "I heard Allah's Messenger (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) saying: The reward of deeds depends on the intentions, and every person will get the reward according to what he has intended; so whoever emigrated for wordly benefits or for a woman to marry, his emigration was for what he migrated.".
