120 – Ibn al-Muṣilāyā al-ʿAlāʾ ibn Ḥasan ibn Wahb al-Baghdādī *
The court stylist, master of eloquence, and peerless letter-writer, titled Amīn al-Dawla: Abū Saʿd al-ʿAlāʾ ibn Ḥasan ibn Wahb al-Baghdādī.
He was originally a Christian, but embraced Islam at the hand of the caliph al-Muqtadī. He enjoyed a long career in both verse and prose, lived to a great age, and went blind after more than sixty years of composing the state chancery’s correspondence. When he accepted Islam he was already elderly. He deputized for the vizierate on several occasions, was the most articulate man of his generation, and was distinguished by noble traits, refined manners, and sound judgment (1).
He died suddenly. Renowned for his abundant charity, he endowed all his estates. He embraced Islam when the People of the Covenant were compelled to wear the distinctive garb (2).
