Al-Sharif al-Radi, known in Persian as Seyyed Razi, the son of Abu Ahmad al-Naqib, a descendent of the Prophet Muhammad was born in 970 AD in Baghdad. He was a Muslim scholar who compiled Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib's sayings, the Nahj al-Balaghah, which is considered one of the most famous classical texts of Islam. The book is a collection of aphorisms, political experiences, religious sermons, and letters. The grave of Sayyid Radhi can be found adjacent to the Al Kadhimiya Mosque in Baghdad, Iraq.

When he was young, his mother sent him and his brother, al-Sharif al-Murtada, to study with Shaykh al-Mufid.
