Al-Hafiz Zain al-Din 'Abd al-Rahim al-'Iraqi (Arabic: أبو الفضل زين الدين عبد الرحيم العراقي, 1403-1325) was a renowned KurdishShafi'i scholar and was the foremost leading hadith scholar at his time.[3]
He is called: Al-Iraqi, relative to Iraq, because his origin is Kurdish, from a town called Erbil then his father moved to Egypt when he was young, grew up there, and married a righteous, worshiping woman who gave birth to him. He was born in the year of 1325 in Manshiyet Al-Mahrani on the shore of the Nile river. His parents were known to be righteous and pious and his father died when he was three years old. He memorized the Noble Qur’an when he was just eight years old, and memorized other books such as “Al-Tanbih”, “Al-Hawi”, “Imam”, and his first occupation was in the science of readings, and he looked into jurisprudence and its origins, and advanced in them. His teacher Jamal al-Din al-Isnawi was praising his understanding, appreciating his words, and listening to his discussions.[4]
Then he came to the knowledge of hadith with a sign from al-Izz ibn Jama’a, so he learned from the scholars of his country, then he travelled to seek hadith in the countries of the Levant and elsewhere. He met with Sheikh al-Islam Taqi al-Din al-Subki and began studying under him for a number of years. He used to do Hajj and live nearby in Makkah Al-Mukarramah, and he worked hard, copied, read and listened until he became the great Ḥafiẓ of his time, as his peers said about him. He was a scholar of grammar, language, strangers, readings, hadith, jurisprudence and its origins, but he was dominated by the art of hadith, so he became famous for it, and became unrivalled in this field.
