The first attempt for the collection of Hadith was made during the reign of
Mu'awiyyah b. Abi Sufyan
Uthman b. Affan
Umar b. Abdul-'Aziz
Umar b. al-Khattab
Explication
Umar is credited with having ordered the first collection of Hadith, in an official manner, fearing that some of it might be lost. Abu Bakr ibn Muhammad ibn Hazm and Ibn Shihab Al-Zuhri, were among those who compiled Hadith at Umar's behest.
