The shaykh, long-lived musnid of Baghdad, Abū Muḥammad ʿAbd Allāh ibn ʿUbayd Allāh ibn Yaḥyā al-Baghdādī, a tutor by profession, better known as Ibn al-Bayyiʿ.
He narrated from Qāḍī Abū ʿAbd Allāh al-Maḥāmilī his book al-Duʿāʾ for him, together with several other fascicles in which he was the sole transmitter.
Among those who reported from him were Abū al-Ghanāʾim Muḥammad ibn Abī ʿUthmān, his brother Abū Muḥammad Aḥmad, Abū al-Faḍl ibn al-Baqqāl ʿUmar ibn ʿUbayd Allāh, ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Aḥmad al-Dajjājī, Muḥammad ibn Muḥammad al-ʿUkbarī, and Abū al-Khaṭṭāb Naṣr ibn al-Baṭir.
Al-Khaṭīb (3) said: “He lived in Darb al-Yahūd and was reliable. I was not granted the chance to hear from him. I recall when people went to him, but I did not go because of the heat.”
He died in Rajab 408 AH at the age of eighty-seven.
