Siyar Aʿlām al-NubalāʾShams al‑Din al‑Dhahabi

al-Junūjirdī—and Junūjird (1) is one of the villages of Marw.

His given name was ʿAbd Allah. He was among those who made the Shāfiʿī school public in Khurasan, and after Imām Aḥmad ibn Sayyār he was the authority to whom people turned for fatwas and difficult legal questions.

Aḥmad had brought al-Shāfiʿī’s books to Marw, and the people were greatly impressed by them. ʿAbdān wanted to copy them, but Aḥmad would not lend them to him. So ʿAbdān sold an estate he owned in Junūjird, travelled to Egypt, and there obtained the books in full—indeed, even more than that. Later Aḥmad ibn Sayyār came in to greet him, offer congratulations, and apologize. ʿAbdān replied, “Do not apologize, for you have done me a favor in this. Had you given me the books, I would never have travelled to Egypt.”

Abū Nuʿaym ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Muḥammad al-Ghifārī said: “ʿAbdān also died on the night of ʿArafa—just as he had been born on it—in the year 293 AH.”

Abū Bakr al-Khaṭīb (2) said: “He was trustworthy, a ḥadith memorizer, righteous, and ascetic.”

Aḥmad ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān al-Ḥaddād informed us; Muḥammad ibn Ismāʿīl informed us; and ʿAbd Allah ibn Abī al-ʿAish informed us; Ibrāhīm ibn Khalīl informed us; they said:

Yahyā ibn Maḥmūd informed us; Fāṭima bint ʿAbd Allah al-Jawzjāniyya informed us twice, with Abū ʿAdnān Muḥammad ibn Aḥmad present; they said:

Muḥammad ibn ʿAbd Allah informed us; Abū al-Qāsim al-Ṭabarānī informed us; ʿAbdān ibn Muḥammad al-Marwazī narrated to us in Mecca in the year 287 AH; Qutayba informed us; Saḥbal (3) ibn Muḥammad ibn Abī Yaḥyā al-Aslamī informed us, from his father, from Abū Ḥadrad al-Aslamī, who said:

“A Jew had four dirhams due from me, so he kept pressing me while the Messenger”

(1) The name is vocalized with a ḍamma on the first jim and on the nun, and a kasra on the second jim, as stated in al-Ansab, al-Lubab, and Lub al-Lubab. Yaqut alone gives a different reading, recording in his Muʿjam, 2/172, a fatha followed by a ḍamma. (2) Cited in his Tarikh, vol. 11, p. 135. (3) Pronounced sahbal—sin with fatha, a quiescent ha, then ba and lam. This is the sobriquet of Abd Allah b. Muhammad b. Abi Yahya al-Aslami; in al-Tabarani’s Muʿjam al-Saghir it is wrongly written as sakhil.
