'''Abu al-Fida Imad al-Din Ismail ibn Umar ibn Kathir al-Qurashi al-Dimashqi''' (إسماعيل بن عمر بن كثير القرشي الدمشقي أبو الفداء عماد الدين), better known as '''Ibn Kathir''', was one of the most influential scholars of [[hadith]] and scholars of [[tafsir]] in Islamic intellectual history. He was born in Bosra (located in present-day Syria) during the Mamluk Sultanate c. 1300 and died in Damascus in 1373. His most famous works include the eponymous [https://tafsir.app/ibn-katheer/1/1 Tafsir Ibn Kathir], the 14-volume hadith-based historical and apocalyptic work ''Al-Bidayah wal-Nihaya'' (literally "The Beginning and the End"), and the still widely-read ''Qisas al-Anbiya'' (translated into English as ''Stories of the Prophets''). | |||
