157 – al-Fārisī, Abū ʿAlī al-Ḥasan ibn Muslim ibn Abī al-Jūd*
The ascetic, devout, Shaykh of Iraq: Abū ʿAlī al-Ḥasan ibn Muslim (1) ibn Abī al-Jūd al-Fārisī al-ʿIrāqī, from the village of al-Fārisiyyah (2).
He studied the Qur’an and jurisprudence with Abū al-Badr al-Karkhī. Among those who narrated from him were Ibn Bāsūwayh, Ibn al-Dubaythī, Ibn Khalīl, al-Yaldānī, and others. He was without peer—constantly fasting, spending the nights in prayer, wholly devoted and humble. He kept the company of Shaykh ʿAbd al-Qādir, and people travelled to visit him; the caliph al-Nāṣir visited him in his village and went to great lengths.
