Ibn Shabba, Taʾrīkh al-Madīna al-munawwara, 1:259

This is a reference to the location of Jaʿfar al-Ṣādiq's house in Medina, which can be found in the oldest partially-surviving account of the city by Ibn Shabba (d. 262 AH). Al-Ṣādiq's house was located southeast of the Prophet's mosque next to the house of the prominent Companion Abū Ayyūb al-Anṣārī (d. 52 AH).
