Ramhormoz

Ramhormoz (Ram-Hurmuz), in the Khuzestan region of southwestern Iran, was a town of the lowlands east of Ahvaz. It gave its nisba to the hadith scholar al-Ramahurmuzi (d. c. 971), whose al-Muhaddith al-Fasil is one of the earliest surviving systematic works on the science of hadith transmission and criticism.
