Name:

Abu Abdullaah Muhammad bin Yazeed bin Majah

 

Born:

In the year 209 A.H.

Died:

In the year 273 A.H.

Abu Ya’ala al-Khaleeli said:

‘He is thiqa ((trustworthy), a senior, agreed upon and used as evidence. He has knowledge of Hadeeth and memorising. Ibn Majah has collections of books categorising Hadeeth in the Sunnan, Tafseer, Tareekh (history) and he is knowledgeable of this science.’

[al-Mu’aeen fee Marifat Manahij al-Muhaditheen by Khalid ar-Raddadi p. 105]

 

Shaykh Khalid ar-Raddadi -Rahimahullaah said:

‘The author did not mention in his book nor was it conveyed from him anything about the reason for collecting ‘Sunnan Ibn Majah’.

It appears that he collected this due to the desire in gathering the Sunnan and Ahadeeth of Rulings as was the practice of the scholars at his time, and Allaah knows best.’

[al-Mu’aeen fee Marifat Manahij al-Muhaditheen by Khalid ar-Raddadi p. 105-106]
