Ḍiyā’ al-Dīn Abu ‘Abdallah Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Wahid al-Sa‘di al-Hanbali (Arabic: ضياء الدين المقدسي) (AH 569–643; AD 1173−1245) was a Hanbali Islamic scholar.

Biography

Diya' al-Din was born in Damascus in 1173. His parents had emigrated from Nablus in the crusader Kingdom of Jerusalem shortly before his birth, along with 155 of other Hanbali inhabitants of the area, in response to perceived threats against their shaykhs from the crusader lord of Nablus, Baldwin of Ibelin. Al-Dhahabi described him as the Sheikh of hadith scholars. He recorded Maqdisi's death in the year 1245 CE, AH 643.

He was a relative of Abd al-Ghani al-Maqdisi, as his grandmother and Abd al-Ghani al-Maqdisi's mother were sisters, while Ibn Qudamah was his maternal uncle.
