Abu Ja'far Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Husayn ibn Musa ibn Babuwayh Qummi, known as Sheikh Saduq Qummi and Ibn Babuwayh (born 306 - died 381), was a Shiite scholar in the fourth century AH and a scholar of hadith. He was born around 306 in Qom. His birth coincided with the beginning of the vicegerency of Husayn ibn Ruh, the third special deputy of Hujjat ibn Hasan.
Saduq's father, Ali ibn Husayn ibn Musa ibn Babuwayh, was a Shiite jurist who lived during the time of Hasan Askari and Hujjat ibn Hasan and was respected by them. (Both father and son are known as Ibn Babuwayh and Saduqayn)
It is stated in Shiite books about the birth of Saduq that his father had not had a child after 50 years of his life. Therefore, he wrote a letter to Husayn ibn Ruh, the third deputy of Hujjat ibn Hasan, and asked him to convey his request to Hujjat ibn Hasan. In response to this letter, Hujjat ibn Hassan wrote to Saduq's father: "I asked God to provide for you two sons whose existence will be good and blessed." Therefore, he is also called "born through the prayer of the Imam of the Age." He was invited to that city by Rukn al-Dawla Daylami, the king of Ray, and settled there. He lived with that Shiite king and his minister, Sahib ibn Ebad, and the spiritual leadership of the Shiites of the era was entrusted to him. He then traveled to the cities of Khorasan, Mawar-e-Nahr, Nishapur, Balkh, and Bukhara, and went to the Hijaz and Iraq for pilgrimage and pilgrimage. In the cities of Kufa and Baghdad, religious scholars used his knowledge, and then returned to Iran and died in Ray in 381 AH. Saduq Ibn Babawayh of Qom found life in Qom difficult due to the government's pressure to be strict on the Shiites, and he migrated to a village in Balkh, where all the residents were Shiites. The Shiites welcomed him warmly and asked him to write a book on jurisprudence, and he also wrote his famous book, Man Lai Hadhrat Al-Faqih, in this village. The first person to call Ibn Babawayh Saduq was Ibn Idris Al-Hilli, but after him, this title was not popular until the time of the first martyr, Allama Majlisi.
