Al-Dhahabi said about him in Siyar A'lam Al-Nubala: "No one among the top 300 was more حفظ (memorized) than Al-Nasa'i. He is more precise in الحديث (hadith), its علل (defects), and its رجال (narrators) than Muslim, Abu Dawood, and Abu Isa. He is a peer in the field of Al-Bukhari and Abu Zur'a." Among his works: the book "Al-Mujtaba min Al-Sunan Al-Kubra," known as "Sunan Al-Nasa'i," and "Al-Sunan Al-Kubra," and "Al-Du'afa' wal-Matrukun," and "Amal Al-Yawm wal-Layla" in which he included الأذكار (remembrances). His methodology in the سنن (Sunan): His narrators are trustworthy and just. He limited his Sunan to حديث الأحكام (hadith of rulings), like his predecessor Abu Dawood. He repeated الحديث with different chains of narration, and combined in his book the benefits of الإسناد (chain of narration) and the subtlety of الفقه (jurisprudence). He discussed the الحديث and its علل (defects), and clarified what is in it of زيادات (additions) and الاختلاف (differences).
