Abū ‘Abd al-Raḥmān ‘Abd Allāh ibn Ḥabīb ibn Rabī‘ah al-Sulamī (Arabic: أبو عبد الرحمن عبد الله بن حبيب بن ربيعة السُلميّ) was a blind ḥadīth narrator and qāriʾ (Qur’ān reciter) born during the lifetime of the Islamic prophet Muḥammad.
His father, Ḥabīb ibn Rabī‘ah As-Sulamī, was a companion of Muḥammad.
Abū ‘Abdir-Raḥmān As-Sulamī is thought to have died in either AH 73 (692/693 CE) or AH 74 (693/694 CE), in Bishr ibn Marwān province in Al-Kūfah.
Beginning in the caliphate of ‘Uthmān ibn ‘Affān, he held classes showing the recitation of the Qur’ān to individuals in the Great Mosque of Al-Kūfah for many years until his death.
[2] Abū ‘Abdir-Raḥmān As-Sulamī never took payment for such recitations of the Qur’ān.
