(1) Wafayat al-aʿyan and Muʿjam al-udabaʾ give the title of the work as “Jinan al-jinan wa riyad al-adhhan”. Yaqut states that it comprises four volumes and records the poetry of Egyptian poets and those who visited them; it is meant as a supplement to al-Thaʿalibi’s Yatimat al-dahr. See Brockelmann, Geschichte 5/155. ‑ He also wrote “Muniyat al-almaʿi wa bulghat al-muddaʿi”, which Haji Khalifa calls “Umniyat al-almaʿi”. It is the Ḥasibiya maqama, composed in a humorous vein; the author dictated it playfully yet packed it with abundant learning, then explained its linguistic and scholarly points, making it an agreeable read. It was printed in Iliya at the expense of Muhammad Mahmud al-Habbal, 1318 AH; Shaykh Tahir al-Jazaʾiri later abridged the commentary, prefacing the text with a biography of the author, and this edition appeared in 1320 AH (see Muʿjam al-matbuʿat). ‑ Brockelmann treats Umniyat al-almaʿi and the Ḥasibiya maqama as two separate works; cf. Geschichte 5/155 (Arabic ed.). For the rest of his writings, consult Muʿjam al-udabaʾ 4/54–55 and Hadiyyat al-arifin 1/86. (2) He died in 561 AH.
