Life
Ibn Salamah was born roughly in 82AH and died of natural causes in 167AH. In hadith, or recorded statements and actions of the Muslim prophet Muhammad, he was a narrator for later scholars Ibn Jurayj, Sufyan al-Thawri and Abdullah ibn Mubarak. His status was considered by many Muslim scholars to be of the highest rank in regard to biographical evaluation, and he is quoted in both Sahih Muslim and Sahih al-Bukhari, the two most significant collections for Sunni Muslims. He is also considered to have been a teacher of both Abu Dawud at-Tayalisi and Yunus ibn Habib.
Ibn Salamah held a noticeably negative opinion of Muslim jurist Abū Ḥanīfa. He was also critical of Sufism, in its early stages during Ibn Salamah's life.
