Among his closest disciples was al-Qasim ibn Ahmad, better known as Ibn Arfaʿ Raʾsih (1). The work History of the Distinguished Clients in al-Andalus states that he was a client of the Banu Hilal al-Tujibiyyin and that he was one of the scholars most proficient in memorizing legal questions. He left behind a prestigious collection entitled Kitab al-Nasaʾih (The Book of Counsels). He died in 354 AH; his grave is still visited in al-Andalus, although some maintain that he passed away earlier than that.
As for the ascetic Muhammad ibn Abd Allah ibn Masarra (2) of al-Andalus, who authored works on Sufism, he died in 319 AH. He was accused of espousing the Qadari doctrine.
