'''Riyāḍ al-ʿulamāʾ wa ḥiyāḍ al-fuḍalāʾ''' (Arabic: ریاض العلماء و حیاض الفضلاء ) is a book that was written by [[Mirza 'Abd Allah Afandi]] (b.[[1066]]/1656 – d.[[1130]]/1718) and is about biography of [[Shi'a]] and [[Sunni]] scholars. Afandi authored this book in an alphabetical way consisting of ten volumes; five volumes were dedicated to biography of Shi'a scholars, and the other half had to do with Sunni scholars.

Riyad al-'ulama is the most notable work of Afandi. It is compared to ''[[Jawahir al-kalam (Book)|Jawahir al-kalam fi sharh sharayi' al-islam]]'' (written by [[Muhammad Hasan Najafi]]) which is considerable in imami fiqh- in terms of technicality,<ref>Nuri, ''al-Fayd al-qudsi'', p.86</ref> and it represents the validity and significance of the book. Afandi began to write the book at the age of forty.<ref>Afandi, ''Riyad al-'ulam' '', vol.3 p.233</ref> He was going to author a book on the biography of Shi'i scholars since [[Occultation of Imam al-Mahdi (aj)]] to his era, but sometimes he dealt with other subjects. This book remained forever in a draft form, and perhaps that is why there are some neglects in phrases and themes.
