## Bio

Yahya ibn Sharaf al-Nawawi was born in October 1233 and spent his brief adult life writing. He produced lengthy works across hadith, theology, biography, and jurisprudence — output that would seem impossible for someone who died at 45 on 21 December 1277. Two texts secured his lasting authority: The Meadows of the Righteous, a collection still used for moral instruction, and Sharh Sahih Muslim, his commentary on one of Islam's canonical hadith compilations. The Shafi'i school of law paired him with Abu al-Qasim al-Rafi'i as "the Two Shaykhs," the twin jurists of the earlier classical age. Centuries later, his name still appears on spines in religious libraries from Cairo to Jakarta.
