Biography
He was born in Nishapur a year earlier than Ibn Jarir al-Tabari and outlived him by one year. In Nishapur, he studied under its scholars, including Ishaq Ibn Rahwayh (died 238 AH/853 CE), the muhaddith of Khorasan at the time, as well as with al-Bukhari and Muslim.
Works
Al-Hakim recorded that Ibn Khuzaymah wrote more than 140 books. Little of what he wrote survives today:
- Saheeh ibn Khuzaymah: mukhtaá¹£ar al-Mukhtaá¹£ar min al-musnad al-á¹¢aḥëḥ (): It is a collection of hadiths, covering prayer, fasting, pilgrimage, and the zakÃÂt tithe. Among the Sahih collections after Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, it is regarded highly along with Sahih Ibn Hibbaan and Sahih Abi 'Awana. It has been edited by Muhammad Mustafa Al-A'zami and published by al-Maktab al-Islami in Beirut.
- KitÃÂb al-Tawḥëd wa-ithbÃÂt á¹£ifÃÂt al-Rabb âÂÂazza wa-jall () â Recently, an English translation of the work has been initiated which is being publish piecemeal on https://kitabaltawhidenglish.blogspot.com/ .
