Notable Personality of Islam

Assalam Aalaikum wa Rehmatullahe wa Barkatahu

I have collected below information about Mohammed (Salal la ho alahi wasalam), Sahaba (comapanions) and some of islamic scholars.

Intension behind this effort is to have information about their birth place/dates and how long they have served their life for us.

This little information will also help us to know, how many years after Prophet Mohammed (Salal la ho alahi wasalam’s) death the A’immah (scholars) and Mohaddiseen (Hadith Scholar) came in this world.

Few Facts are –

  • Abu Bakr Siddque (Radiallahu anhu) is 2 years younger to Prophet Mohammed (Salal la ho alahi wasalam) and he left this world after 2 years of Prophet (Salal la ho alahi wasalam’s) demise.
  • Prophet Mohammed (Salal la ho alahi wasalam), Umar Farooq and Hazrat Ali (Radiallahu anhu) died at the age of 63 (Approximately).
  • Imam Abu Hanifa (Rahimullah) born in 80 Hijri i.e. after the 70 years of Prophet (Salal la ho alahi wasalam’s) demise. He is very closest to Prophet’ era.
  • Imam Bukhari (Rahimullah) born approximately 200 years after Muhammad (Salal la ho alahi wasalam).

I have created 2 version of it, brief version is published below and for the detailed excel file you can click here (Notable_Personality_Islam). Additionally it contains full name, birth/death place etc in it.  I have collected this information from internet so I would request you all to correct me if you find any ambiguity in it. Also if you have more information on this topic than do let me know, I will add it in below format.

We ask Allaah (Subhan-Wa-Tala) to make us among the people of Paradise by His Grace and Mercy. May Allaah bless our Prophet Muhammad (Salal la ho alahi wasalam). Aameen!!
