description: "Ismāʿīl ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān al-Suddī was a popular preacher and Qurʾānic exegete in Kūfa. His nickname al-Suddī comes from his habit of sitting on the threshold (sudd) of the Great Mosque of Kūfa. His status as a traditionist is unclear, since his presence in isnāds is often inauthentic and he was sometimes accused of fabrication. He criticized Abū Bakr and ʿUmar and was accused of having Shīʿī tendencies (tashayyuʿ). His reputation rests on his exegesis, which was considered inconsequential by al-Shaʿbī and merely \"popular\" by Ibrāhīm al-Nakhaʿr, but was cited extensively in al-Ṭabarī's Tafsīr."
