Jami’ at-Tirmidhi is one of the six major hadith collections in Sunni Islam, compiled by Imam Abu ‘Isa Muhammad at-Tirmidhi. It is notable for its classification of hadith based on authenticity and legal relevance, and includes commentary on the reliability of narrators and juristic differences among scholars.
