A survey of how Ibadi Islamic legal scholarship developed over its first several centuries, published on the Islamic Law Blog, hosted by the Program in Islamic Law at Harvard Law School. Its author, Ersilia Francesca of the University of Naples L'Orientale, is a named specialist in Islamic and Ibadi legal history rather than an anonymous or crowd edited contributor, and the piece traces the school's scholarship from its earliest hadith transmission, through Jabir ibn Zayd, Abu Ubayda and al-Rabi ibn Habib, to the later Omani jurists, including Ibn Baraka al-Bahlawi and al-Kudami, who built Ibadi legal method into a developed system. It is a university hosted academic blog survey rather than a peer reviewed journal article or monograph, appropriate as a source for this outline of who wrote what and in what order, though a reader wanting a full scholarly treatment of Ibadi legal theory should look to the specialist literature the piece itself surveys.

Assessment
Reliability Tier2
Tier two: a named specialist academic author writing a survey on a university hosted blog, Harvard Law School's Program in Islamic Law, useful and credibly sourced for the historical outline of who wrote what and when, but a secondary survey rather than a peer reviewed monograph or journal article, and not stretched here to support any claim beyond that outline.
