Abū ʿAmr ʿĀmir ibn Sharāḥīl ibn ʿAbd al-Kūfī al-Shaʿbī (Arabic: أبو عمرو عامر بن شراحيل بن عبد الكوفي الشعبي), 641–723, commonly known as Imam al-Sha'bi or al-Sha'bi,[1] was an Arab historian and jurist, as well as an appreciated Tabi'un, born during the rule of Umar ibn al-Khattab.[2]

Al-Sha’bi has been appointed among the first jurists of leading Islamic law, including ʽAbd al-Razzaq al-Sanʽani and Ibn Abi Shaybah.[3] Al-Sha'bi seems to have been interested in reconstructing chronologies of historical events. Accounts attributed to him primarily concern themselves with conquests in eastern provinces of the caliphate, and one deals with the chronology of the life of Muhammad.[4]

Biography

Al-Sha'bi was of the leading Muslim chronicler who focused on narratives on the Islamic history discipline of Maghazi (expeditions and conquests). His narrations are scattered in many books. His narration style were greatly religious driven.[5]

Al-Sha'bi gained huge reputation that caliph ʿAbd al-Malik ibn Marwan entrusted him with the education of his children.[6]

Al-Sha'bi was described as physically skinny.[7]

Influence

Hanbali and Shafii schools took al-Sha'bi's approach if a gender of a person cannot be described.[8]
