About this person

Muhammad ibn Isa al-Tirmidhi was born in 824 CE in Termez, a city in early Khorasan, now part of Uzbekistan. He devoted himself to Islamic scholarship and the meticulous work of collecting hadith - the reported sayings and actions of Muhammad. The result was al-Jami' as-Sahih, known as Jami' at-Tirmidhi, which earned its place among the six canonical hadith compilations that anchor Sunni tradition. He also produced Shama'il Muhammadiyah, a focused collection on the Prophet's character and daily life. Trained in Arabic grammar, he aligned with the Kufan school, which prized poetry as a source over the rival approach from Basra. He died on 9 October 892 CE, leaving texts that scholars and jurists have returned to for over a millennium.
