One of the greatest ḥadīth scholars of this time was Shaikh Muḥammad ibn ʿĀlī ibn Ādam al-Ityūbī, may Allaah have mercy on him, he was from Ethiopia and migrated to Makkah where he taught for decades, he passed away in 2020.
He said, “One of Allaah’s blessings on me was that he made me love the science of ḥadīth from a young age. When I was small and my father used to read Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī I would hide behind a wall and listen to the person reading it, and upon hearing Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī being read my heart would yearn [for it] …” Ṣafaḥāt Muḍīʾah min Ḥayātil-ʾAllāmah Muḥammad ibn ʿĀlī ibn Ādam al-Ityūbī, Durūsun wa Mawāqif, p. 23.
