Who am I?

1.) I am not a sahabi but I am an important islamic figure and a reviver
2.) I share a name with a famous sahabi
3.) when i was a boy I was held up for prayer at the masjid due to combing my hair, so my father had me shave it off.

Can we get any hints? Where did he live or in which century?

I'm not sure but could it be Abu Bakr al Baqillani? I remember reading about the 'revivers of Islam' and his name coming up.

I believe that this told story is about the khaleefah Umar Bin AbdulAzeez may Allah Be pleased with him one of the umayyad caliphs no but the best of them whom the ulama considered him as the fifth of the rightly guided caliphs and not to forget mentioning that he is the grandson of the second rightly guided caliphs Umar Bin Al Khattaab may Allah Be pleased with him

O Allah unite us with them in Al Jannah and first with the prophet Muhammad salla Allaahu Alyhi wa sallam and never prevent us from seeing Your Face Oh The Greatest The Most Merciful Allaahumma Aameen

I will give you a few hints to try and help you guess InshaAllah. You are only allowed one attempt to try and guess who it is. If you get it right you go next. Ill go first InshaAllah My kunya is Abu Mundhir. I witnessed the 'aqabah pledge and the battle of Badr. I am one of the most knowledgeable in the Quran. Many companions have narrated hadith from me. The Prophet, peace be upn him, once asked if he could read a surah to me and he did. On another occasion, I was also asked by the Prophet, peace be upon him, about the greatest verse in the Quran, and i answered it correctly. He hit my chest and praised me. Who Am I?
