Al-Taftazani was born in 1322 in Taftazan, Khorasan in Iran, then in the Sarbedaran state. He completed his education in various educational institutions in the cities of Herat, Gujduvan, Feryumed, Gulistan, Khwarizm, Samarkand and Sarakhs. He mainly resided in Sarakhs. He was active during the reign of Timur, who noticed him as a promising scientist and supported his scholarship, and was part of his court. IbnHajar al-Asqalani famously remarkedabout him that "science ended with him in the East" and "no one could ever replace him", due to the Mongol invasion of Central Asia, which ended theIslamic Golden Age. He died in Samarkand in 1390 and was buried in Sarakhs.
