Abu Muhammad Abd al-Malik ibn Hisham ibn Ayyub al-Himyari (d. 9th century CE) was a renowned Arab scholar and historian of the Abbasid period. He is best known for editing and transmitting the earliest and most authoritative biography (Sirah) of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, based on the work of Ibn Ishaq. His recension, widely known as Sirat Ibn Hisham, remains a foundational source in Islamic history and prophetic biography.
