Answer Details
Among the six compilers of Hadith, the one who became blind before his death was Tirmidhi. He was born in Persia (nowadays Iran) and spent his life travelling and collecting Hadith from different scholars. His collection of Hadith is called Jami` at-Tirmidhi. Tirmidhi lost his eyesight in the later years of his life due to an illness, but he continued to teach and narrate Hadith until his death.
