About this person
Shuʿba bin al-Ḥajjāj bin al-Ward, Abū Busṭām al-ʿAtakī was an early, devout Muslim, who was known for both his knowledge of poetry and of ḥadīth. His scrupulousness in ḥadīth transmission, alongside other scholars such as Sufyān al-Thawrī, is understood to have laid the foundation for the concretization of ḥadīth sciences.
