Muhammad ibnu Idris Al-Syafie or also known as Imam Al-Syafie was born in Gaza, Palestine near a town called ‘Asqalan. He was born in the year 150 AH.
After two years, his mother brought him to Mecca to visit their family. He was thrilled to go on his first journey. On the journey, his mother told him to love learning from teachers. He had a good memory since he was a boy. He managed to memorize the whole Quran.
After memorizing the Quran, he decided to learn Hadith and Fiqh. He went to Medina to learn Fiqh with the famous Imam Malik. After learning, he went out of town to teach the Fiqh that he learned from Imam Malik.
When he went to Iraq to teach his Hadith and Fiqh, many people came to learn from him. He became the center of attention of all the world. Muslims went on a long journey just to learn his Fiqh.
Unfortunately, with all his hard work teaching for a whole day, he didn’t get enough rest until he got a disease. After that, he died because his disease was not properly treated. Everyone was sad when he left this world.
That’s the end of the story. bye
