Index of Personal Names
This index gives first occurrences in the study (Part 1) and then occurrences in the stories themselves (Part 2). Names in isnāds have been ignored, except when the last link takes part in the action. When a name appears both in the story itself and in the following commentary or the footnotes, only the first has been indicated. Names appearing in the footnotes are indicated by n (24n = page 24, footnote) and those appearing in the commentary by k (B2k = B2, commentary).
