Imam Abu Mansur Muhammad ibn Muhammad ibn Mahmud al-Maturidi as-Samarqandi (Arabic: أبو منصور الماتريدي, romanized: ʾAbū Manṣūr al-Māturīdī; 853–944) was a Hanafi jurist and theologian who is the eponym of the Maturidi school of kalam in Sunnism. He got his nisba from Māturīd, a district in Samarkand. His works include Tafsir al-Maturidi, a classic exegesis of the Qur'an, and Kitab al-Tawhid.
His doctrinal school remains amongst the three main schools of theology alongside Ash'arism and Atharism.
