Imam Ahmad Bin Shoaib Al-Nisai (214–303 AH) was a renowned scholar of Hadith. His compilation, Sunan Al Nisai, is considered one of the Sihah Sitta (the six most authentic Hadith books in Sunni Islam). It is highly regarded for its rigorous criteria in Hadith authentication and contains mostly authentic narrations with minimal weak reports. The book primarily focuses on legal rulings and jurisprudential matters.
The Sihah Sitta consists of Sahih Bukhari, Sahih Muslim, Sunan Abu Dawood, Jami Al Tirmidhi, Sunan Al Nisai, and Sunan Ibn Majah. Imam Al-Nisai was originally from Nisa (present-day Turkmenistan) and later settled in Egypt. His work is sometimes called Al-Sunan Al-Sughra (the smaller Sunan) to distinguish it from his larger collection, Al-Sunan Al-Kubra.
