321 – Ibn al-Khallāl, Abū al-Ḥajjāj Yūsuf ibn Muḥammad al-Miṣrī *
The refined and eloquent man of letters, Muwaffaq al-Dīn, Abū al-Ḥajjāj Yūsuf ibn Muḥammad ibn al-Khallāl al-Miṣrī, served as kātib al-sirr (confidential secretary) to al-Ḥāfiẓ al-ʿUbaydī and to the rulers who succeeded him.
He grew old and became hard of hearing, remaining in his house. He produced works in both poetry and prose.
Al-Qāḍī al-Fāḍil said, “I frequented him, stood in his presence, and trained under him. I had already memorised the book al-Ḥamāsa, so he ordered me to elucidate its poems, which I did twice.”
He died in 566 AH.
