Muḥammad ibn ʿAlī ibn Abī al-Jarrāḥ, and a number of others.
In Baghdad he also studied under Abū Ḥafṣ al-Kattānī and Abū Ṭāhir al-Mukhalliṣ.
Those who transmitted from him include: Abū Manṣūr Aḥmad ibn ʿAbd Allāh al-ʿAlawī; Muḥammad ibn ʿAbd al-Wahhāb al-Shaʿīrī; Abū al-Ḥārith ʿAlī ibn Muḥammad al-Jābirī; ʿAlī ibn Quṭṭur al-Hamdānī; ʿAlī ibn ʿAlī ibn al-Raṭṭāb; ʿAbd al-Munʿim ibn Yaḥyā ibn Hiql; and Abū al-Ghanāʾim Muḥammad ibn ʿAlī al-Narsī. All were Kūfan authorities and counted among the teachers of al-Silafī. The last person to receive a formal ijāzah from him was ʿUmar ibn Ibrāhīm al-Zaydī, the grammarian.
Ibn al-Narsī relates that he died in Kūfa in Rabīʿ al-Awwal of the year 445 AH. He also reports: “He was born in Rajab of 367 AH. I never met anyone who grasped the juristic subtleties of hadith as he did.” He added: “He was a ḥāfiẓ; al-Ḥāfiẓ al-Ṣūrī collected traditions from him, benefited greatly from him, and took pride in his connection to him.”

A man of justice and trustworthiness: Abū al-Ḥasan Muḥammad ibn Isḥāq ibn Fadduyah al-Kūfī, a disciple of al-Bakkāʾī. Al-Ṣūrī praised him, and al-Khaṭīb (1) said, “He was reliable and dignified.”
