A:Before the coming of major industry, Abertillery was little more than an area of scattered farms in the ancient parish of Aberystruth. In 1779 the parish minister Edmund Jones described the area thus: "The valley of Tyleri... is the most delightful. The trees... especially the beech trees, abounding about rivers great and small, the hedges and lanes make these places exceeding pleasant and the passing by them delightful and affecting... in these warm valleys, with the prospect of the grand high mountains about them would make very delightful habitations." In 1799 clergyman and historian Archdeacon William Coxe toured the area and in writing a diary of his travels described it as "... richly wooded, and highly cultivated...we looked down with delight upon numerous valleys... with romantic scenery". The entire population of Aberystruth parish at the turn of the 19th century was just a little over 800. It is well known what the population of Abertillery was in the very low hundreds at the time, but not all of them would have spoken Welsh only. B:Is it reasonable to conclude that relatively little is known about Abertillery today because there was little contact between its residents and their English speaking neighbors due to insurmountable language barriers? Answer: ultram

A:Sunni and Shia hadith collections differ because scholars from the two traditions differ as to the reliability of the narrators and transmitters. Narrators who took the side of Abu Bakr and Umar rather than Ali, in the disputes over leadership that followed the death of Muhammad, are seen as unreliable by the Shia; narrations sourced to Ali and the family of Muhammad, and to their supporters, are preferred. Shia scholars put trust in narrators such as Aisha, whom the Sunni reject. Differences in hadith collections have contributed to differences in worship practices and shari'a law and have hardened the dividing line between the two traditions. B:Could Aisha be viewed as a kind of compromise narrator, that moderates of both sides of the debate could agree on as a reliable source? Answer:
