A student of al-Bukhari who graded each hadith and noted how jurists used it.

From Tirmidh on the Oxus, he studied with al-Bukhari and Abu Dawud. His Jami' labels each hadith as sound, good or weak and records the views of the schools on it. He also wrote al-Shama'il on the Prophet's ﷺ appearance and manners, and went blind in later life.

The grade 'hasan' (good) became standard through his book.
