He was appointed deputy of Baalbek by the Atabeg Zengi, and there he built a khanqah. Later he ranked among the foremost emirs of Damascus. When his son took possession of Egypt, Nūr al-Din granted him leave to join him, so he set out; his reception was extraordinarily lavish, and even the Rāfiḍī (Shiʿite) caliph al-ʿĀḍid came out to greet him.
He was one of the world’s outstanding men in intellect and experience. His horse reared beneath him, and he died a few days later, in Dhū al-Ḥijjah 568 AH.⦗1⦘ Ten years afterwards his body and that of his brother were transferred to a mausoleum near the Prophet’s Chamber in Medina. He left a number of sons and daughters—may Allah have mercy on him.

371 – Yūsuf ibn Ādam ibn Muḥammad ibn Ādam al-Marāghī al-Dimashqī
The upright traditionist Abū Yaʿqūb al-Marāghī, later known as al-Dimashqī, one of the shaykhs of the Sunnah.
He studied ḥadith under the ḥāfiẓ Ibn Nāṣir, Abū Bakr ibn al-Zāghūnī, and others. He transmitted Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim through al-Firāwī; I do not know whether this was by direct audition—which seems more probable—or by written authorization. The two scholars ʿAbd al-Razzāq al-Jīlī and Muḥammad ibn Mashshiq heard it from him. Among those who narrated from him were Shaykh Salāmah al-Ḥaddād, Hilāl ibn Maḥfūẓ al-Rasʿanī, and a number of others.
