Al-Hakim begins his compilations, 337/948

Al-Hakim began writing his compilations in 337/948-9; his output approached a thousand parts — takhridj of the two Sahihs, 'ilal, biographies, chapters and shaykh-collections — besides the large books such as Ma'rifat 'ulum al-hadith, the Mustadrak 'ala al-Sahihayn and Tarikh al-Naysaburiyyin.
