## Bio

Abū al-Ḥusayn Muslim ibn al-Ḥajjāj was born after 815 CE in Nishapur, a city in what is now northeastern Iran. He devoted his life to the science of hadith, the meticulous work of gathering, vetting, and preserving transmitted accounts of the Prophet's words and deeds. The result was Sahih Muslim, a collection prized not only for its breadth but for the rigor of its authentication standards. It became one of the six major hadith collections in Sunni tradition and is ranked alongside Sahih al-Bukhari as the most reliable. Muslim ibn al-Hajjaj died in May 875 CE. His name endures less as biography than as shorthand for a method — and for the text that carries it.
