Nur al-Din Ali ibn Abd Allah ibn Ahmad al-Hasani al-Samhudi (Arabic: علي بن أحمد السمهودي) was a 15th-century Shafi'i Islamic scholar of the Mamluk Era. He is known to be the last person to enter and clean the Inner Chamber of the prophet Muhammad's grave.[1][2] Al Samhudi wrote Wafa al-Wafa bi akhbar Dar al-Mustafa in five volumes. In this book he intended to gather in it everything connected to the city of Medina.[3]
