I add: Among those who transmitted from him were al-Ḥusayn ibn ʿAlī al-Bardaʿī, Shaykh al-Islām Abū ʿUthmān al-Ṣābūnī, and others.
He passed away in 401 AH.
His poetry—copious and of the highest caliber—circulates widely among men of letters (1).
90 – Ibn al-Jasūr, Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad ibn Muḥammad al-Umawī*
The imam, hadith scholar, reliable authority, and man of letters: Abū ʿUmar Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad ibn Aḥmad ibn Saʿīd ibn al-Ḥubāb al-Umawī, their client, from Córdoba, known as Ibn al-Jasūr. Abū Isḥāq ibn Shinzīr gave him the kunya Abū ʿUmayr, but the first (Abū ʿUmar) is the sounder attribution.
He reported hadith from Qāsim ibn Aṣbagh, Wahb ibn Masarra, Muḥammad ibn ʿAbd Allāh ibn Abī Dulaym, Muḥammad ibn Muʿāwiya, and Aḥmad ibn Muṭarrif.
Narrators from him include the two Ṣāḥibs (2), Abū ʿUmar ibn ʿAbd al-Barr, Abū ʿAbd Allāh al-Khawlānī, and Abū Muḥammad ibn Ḥazm; he was Ibn Ḥazm’s senior-most teacher.
He died in Dhū al-Qaʿdah 401 AH, a little past the age of eighty.
