About Imam Malik ibn Anas

Imam Malik ibn Anas (93–179 AH) was one of the four great Imams of Islamic jurisprudence and the undisputed Imam of Madinah. Born and raised in the Prophet's ﷺ city, he had direct access to the living Sunnah through the Tabi'een and senior Companions' students. Imam Shafi'i famously declared: “The most authentic book after the Quran is the Muwatta of Imam Malik.”

About the Narrator — Ibn Al-Qasim

Abdur Rahman ibn Al-Qasim (132–191 AH) was among Imam Malik's most distinguished and trusted students, studying under him for 20 years. His narration of the Muwatta is considered one of the most reliable transmissions and forms the primary basis of Maliki jurisprudence across the Islamic world.
