Those who transmitted from her include: al-Khaṭīb, Abū al-Ghanāʾim al-Narsī, Abū Ṭālib al-Ḥusayn ibn Muḥammad al-Zaynabī, Muḥammad ibn Barakāt al-Saʿīdī, ʿAlī ibn al-Ḥusayn al-Farrāʾ, ʿAbd Allāh ibn Muḥammad ibn Ṣadaqah ibn al-Ghazāl, Abū al-Qāsim ʿAlī ibn Ibrāhīm al-Nasīb, Abū al-Muẓaffar Manṣūr ibn al-Samʿānī, and many others.
Abū al-Ghanāʾim al-Narsī said: “Karīmah brought out to me her copy of the Ṣaḥīḥ; I sat facing her, copied seven folios (1), and read them back. I was intending to collate the text on my own, but she said, ‘Not until you collate it with me.’ So I did the collation with her. I also read to her from the narrations of Zāhir.”
Abū Bakr ibn Manṣūr al-Samʿānī related: “I heard my father speak of Karīmah and say, ‘Has anyone ever seen a person like Karīmah?’”
Abū Bakr continued: “I heard Karīmah’s niece say, ‘Karīmah never married at all. Her father was from Kushmīhān (2) and her mother from the lineage of the Sayyārī family (3). Her father took her to Jerusalem and then brought her back to Mecca, and she had reached one hundred years of age.’”
Ibn Nuqṭah said: “I copied her date of death from the handwriting of Ibn Nāṣir: the year 465 AH.”
I say: The sound date of her death is 463 AH.
Hibatu’llāh ibn al-Akfānī said—in the year 463: “ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz ibn ʿAlī al-Ṣūfī told me, ‘While I was in Mecca I heard from a reliable informant that Karīmah passed away in the course of this very year.’”
