Muhammad ibn Ishaq ibn Khuzaymah al-Nishapuri (Arabic:محمد بن إسحق بن خزيمع النيسابوري) (Persian: محمد بن اسحاق بن خزیمه نیشاپوری) (838-924 AH) was a prominent Persian Muslim muhaddith scholar and Shafi'i jurist.[1] He is best known for his hadith collection, Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah.[2]

Biography

[edit]

He was born in Nishapur a year earlier than Ibn Jarir al-Tabari and outlived him by one year. In Nishapur, he studied under its scholars, including Ishaq Ibn Rahwayh (died 238 AH/853 CE), the muhaddith of Khorasan at the time,[2] as well as with al-Bukhari and Muslim.

Works

[edit]

Al-Hakim recorded that Ibn Khuzaymah wrote more than 140 books.[2] Little of what he wrote survives today:[2]

  • Saheeh ibn Khuzaymah: mukhtaṣar al-Mukhtaṣar min al-musnad al-Ṣaḥīḥ (Arabic: صحيح بن خزيمة : مختصر المختصر من المسند الصحيح): It is a collection of hadiths, covering prayer, fasting, pilgrimage, and the zakāt tithe. Among the Sahih collections after Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, it is regarded highly along with Sahih Ibn Hibbaan and Sahih Abi 'Awana. It has been edited by Muhammad Mustafa Al-A'zami and published by al-Maktab al-Islami in Beirut.
