Qūbiyya; he resided in Ḥamāh and later in Damascus. He lectured at the al-Qaymāziyya (1) and was distinguished in logic and dialectics; a number of students pursued those disciplines under him. He lived to be eighty-six years old and performed the pilgrimage seven times.

He died on the night preceding Friday, the twenty-sixth of Rabīʿ al-Awwal. The funeral prayer was offered for him after the congregational prayer, and he was buried in the Ṣūfiyya cemetery.

In that same month of Rabīʿ al-Awwal the following also passed away:

• The emir ʿAlāʾ al-Dīn Ṭaybughā (2); he was buried in his own mausoleum in al-Ṣāliḥiyya.

• Likewise the emir Sayf al-Dīn Zūlāq (3); he too was interred in his own mausoleum.

Chief Judge Sharaf al-Dīn Abū Muḥammad ʿAbd Allāh (4) ibn al-Ḥasan ibn ʿAbd Allāh, grandson of the ḥadith master ʿAbd al-Ghanī al-Maqdisī, a Ḥanbalī. Born in 646 AH, he served for a time as deputy to Ibn Muslim and was appointed judge last year. He died suddenly (5) on the first of Jumādā al-Ūlā, on the eve of Thursday, and was buried the next day in the cemetery of Shaykh Abū ʿUmar.

Shaykh Yāqūt (6) al-Ḥabashī, the Shādhilī from Alexandria, reached the age of eighty. He had followers and companions, among them the Shāfiʿī jurist Shams al-Dīn ibn al-Labbān, who venerated and extolled him, attributing to him remarkable feats—Allah knows best their truth or falsity (7). He died in Jumādā, and his funeral was exceptionally well attended.

The naqīb Nāṣih al-Dīn Muḥammad (8) ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥīm ibn Qāsim ibn Ismāʿīl al-Dimashqī, overseer of the turban-wearers, first studied under al-Shihāb the Qurʾān-reciter. Thereafter he presided over gatherings of mourning and rejoicing, a field he knew well and for which people frequently sought his services. Nevertheless, he died heavily in debt; he passed away in late Rajab.
