824-
892, ie
209 AH - 13 Rajab

hadith (sayings of the Prophet
Muhammad)
Biography
He wrote the
Sunan al-Tirmidhi, one of the six canonical hadith compilations used in
Sunni Islam. He was born (and would die) in
Bugh, a suburb of
Termez (Arabic
Tirmidh)
Uzbekistan, to a family of the widespread
Banū Sulaym tribe. Starting at the age of twenty, he travelled widely, to
Kufa,
Basra and the
Hijaz, seeking out knowledge from, among others,
Qutaiba ibn Said,
Bukhari,
Imam Muslim and
Abu Dawud.
Tirmidhī was blind in the last two years of his life.
Tirmidhi is buried in
Sherobod, 60 kilometers north of
Termez,
Uzbekistan. He is locally know as Iso At Termizi or Termiz Ota (Father of Termez City).
Works
Tirmidhī wrote nine books, of which, after the
Jami,
al-'Ilal and "Shamail" are best-known; only four of his works survive. He played a major part in giving the formerly vague terminology used in classifying hadith according to their reliability a more precise set of definitions.
