Abū al-Qāsim Sulaymān ibn Aḥmad ibn Ayyūb ibn Muṭayyir al-Lakhmī ash-Shāmī aṭ-Ṭabarānī (Arabic: أَبُو ٱلقَاسِم سُلَيْمَان بْن أَحْمَد بْن أَيُّوب بْن مُطَيِّر ٱللَّخْمِيّ ٱلشَّامِيّ ٱلطَّبَرَانِيّ) (873/874–970/971 CE/260–360 AH),[1] commonly known as at-Tabarani (Arabic: ٱلطَّبَرَانِيّ), was a Sunni Muslim scholar and traditionist known for the extensive volumes of narrations he published.
Biography
At-Tabarani was born in 260 AH in Tiberias, a city in Sham. He travelled extensively to numerous regions to quench his thirst of knowledge, including Syria, Hejaz, Yemen, Egypt, Baghdad, Kufa, Basra, and Isfahan.[2] He narrated from more than one thousand scholars,[citation needed] and authored a multitude of books on the subject. Abu al-Abbas Ahmad ibn Mansur stated, "I have narrated 300,000 narrations from at-Tabarani."[3] For most of the final years of his life, he lived in Isfahan, Iran, where he died on Dhu al-Qa'dah 27, 360 AH.[4][5]
Students
At-Tabarani, being a teacher of narrations, taught many students. Among them were Ahmad ibn Amr ibn Abd al-Khaliq al-Basri and Abu Bakr al-Bazzar.[citation needed]
