He has a biographical entry spanning a dozen-plus folios in Hilyat al-Awliyā’ (1). Those who related from him include Abū Zurʿah al-Dimashqī and Aḥmad ibn Abī al-Ḥawārī. He would say, “A cool booty: mend what remains and what has passed will be forgiven you” (2). He also said, “Once dealings are referred to the heart, the limbs find rest” (3). I have not discovered a clear date for his death, though he probably lived on until roughly 230 AH (4).
