Imam ad-Darimiy was Abu Muhammad Abdullah bin Abdulrahman, a hadith scholar born in 181 AH who died in 255 AH. He was known for a strong memory, travelled widely to seek knowledge, and was praised by scholars such as Ibn Hibban. His Sunan is not counted among the four Sunan, though some scholars place it in the Six Books in place of Sunan Ibn Majah. The work is arranged by jurisprudential chapters, begins with purification, and contains 3503 hadith and athar, including mursal, munqati', mu'dhal and maqtu' reports.
