He was born in the year of the passing away of Layth ibn S’ad in the year 175H. His name was Abu Ibrahim Ismail ibn Yahya ibn Ismail ibn ‘Amr ibn Muslim al-Muzani. Once Imam al-Shafi’i said about him: “al-Rabi’i narrates my books.” His rank in fiqh did not reach that of Imam al-Muzani, but he outranked him in hadith.

His was the first person in Islam to write a mukhtasar in fiqh, namely his Mukhtasar al-Buwayti, which is much more faithful in abridging al-Shafi’i’s thought than that of al-Muzani. Indeed, he is sometimes called ‘the first Shafi’i.’ After al-Shafi’i’s passing he was instrumental in the consolidation and spread of the madhab. al-Buwayti), and none of my companions is more knowledgeable than him.’ Indeed, al-Shafi’i would often consult with him in difficult legal issues.
