Ahmad Muhammad Shakir (Arabic: أحمد محمد شاكر, romanized: Aḥmad Muḥammad Shākir) (January 29, 1892, Cairo – June 14, 1958) was an Egyptian Islamic scholar of hadith. He is the son of Muḥammad Shākir ibn Aḥmad, an Islamic scholar of Al-Azhar University[2][3] and elder brother of Mahmud Muhammad Shakir,[4] a writer and journalist.
As editor, Shākir's Cairo publication, from 1937 in 5 volumes, provided the standard topical classification of the hadith Arabic text for Sunan at-Tirmidhi. The work was subject to many reprints.[5]
