EA-CORPORA-23 is the twenty-third seating of primary sources on the Crimson Hexagonal Archive's originals shelf, deposited by Lee Sharks on 27 October 2026. It seats the hadith, the reports of the sayings and acts of the Prophet Muhammad transmitted through chains of named narrators, in Arabic, as a supplement to the Qur'an, which the shelf has held since EA-CORPORA-02 (seat 02/08, the Tanzil Uthmani text). The seat, 23/01, holds fourteen collections in two canons. The Sunni canon is represented by the nine books known as al-Kutub al-Tis'a: the Muwatta of Malik ibn Anas, the Musnad of Ahmad ibn Hanbal, the Sunan of al-Darimi, the Sahih collections of al-Bukhari and Muslim, and the Sunan collections of Ibn Majah, Abu Dawud, al-Tirmidhi and al-Nasa'i. The Imami Shi'i canon is represented by its four books, al-Kutub al-Arba'a: al-Kulayni's al-Kafi, Ibn Babawayh's Man la yahduruhu al-faqih, and al-Tusi's Tahdhib al-ahkam and al-Istibsar. Al-Nawawi's Forty Hadith completes the seat. Each text is the version that the Open Islamicate Texts Initiative (OpenITI) marks as primary, fetched at a pinned commit and checked against its git blob identifier, and seated with its OpenITI version record and the printed edition its header names. The seat totals 675,049 lines, with fifteen loci, among them the hadith on intentions that opens Sahih al-Bukhari, located in the seated text. The digital texts are OpenITI's and carry its CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 licence; the record is CC BY 4.0. Collections held in OpenITI and not seated in this pass, including al-Nasa'i's al-Sunan al-Kubra, Ibn Khuzayma, Ibn Hibban, al-Hakim, al-Bayhaqi and the Zaydi and Ibadi musnads, are listed as queued.
