Al-Tamimi, in full Abū ʿAbd Allāh Muḥammad ibn Qāsim ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn al-Karīm al-Tamīmī al-Fāsī (born 1140/5, died 1207/8) was a Moroccan Arab hadith scholar and biographer, author of Al-Mustafād fī manāqib al-ʿubbād bi-madīnat Fās wa-mā yalīhā min al-bilād. Al-Tamimi hailed from the Banu Tamim tribe which settled in al-Maghreb and al-Andalus.

This book comprises 81 biographies of Moroccan saints. He wrote a fahrasa in which he recorded the names of his teachers and the works he studied under them, called An-Najm al-mushiqa (The resplendent Star). He studied under Abu Madyan. There are also many references to At-Tamimi in the work of Ibn al-Arabi.
