He was born in Nishapur a year earlier than Ibn Jarir al-Tabari and outlived him by one year. In Nishapur, he studied under its scholars, including Ishaq Ibn Rahwayh (died 238 AH), the muhaddith of Khorasan at the time,^[6] as well as with al-Bukhari and Muslim.^[2]

Al-Hakim recorded that Ibn Khuzaymah wrote more than 140 books.^[6] Little of what he wrote survives today:^[6]
