Abu-al-Tayyab Muhammad Shams-al-Haq bin Shaikh Ameer ‘Ali bin Shaikh Maqsood ‘Ali bin Shaikh Ghulam Haidar bin Shaikh Hedayetullah bin Shaikh Muhammad Zahid bin Shaikh Noor Muhammad bin Shaikh ‘Ala’uddin, also known as Shams-ul-haq Azeemabadi, was a scholar of Hadith from India.[1] He is best known for writing the main commentary upon Sunan Abi Dawud.[2]
Life
He was born in Patna, formerly known as Azimabad, and received his Islamic education from Syed Nazeer Husain.[citation needed]
In 1894 he traveled to Mecca and Medina to perform the Hajj, and while there, he also had a chance to meet a number of scholars.[citation needed] Among the most important contributions of Azimabadi was the popularization and distribution of hadith and its literature.[citation needed]
Azimabadi had a very extensive library of Islamic manuscripts, which was considered to be among the best in India.[
In 1910–11 the entire country was in the grip of an epidemic of plague. In Bihar, Azimabadi’s district, Patna was severely hit by this disease. After visiting the city of Dianwan on 15 March he had himself an attack of plague and after six days, on 21 March 1911 he died at the age of 53.[citation needed]
