Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ibn Khallikan's Biographical Dictionary, or Deaths of Eminent Men and History of the Sons of the Epoch, was the noted Arabic scholar Ibn Khallikan's most well-known and respected work. The author worked on the tome from 1256 to 1274, compiling names, genealogies, and histories of prominent or conspicuous men in the Islamic world. The final work was translated into English by William MacGuckin de Slane and is longer than 2,700 pages. It has been quoted by many Arabic rhetoricians and grammarians in other works, as it is considered one of the most important records of Arabic history ever written. Here, separated into four volumes, the Biographical Dictionary is an essential work for any student of Muslim culture and literature. Volume II includes: An Introduction by Mac Guckin de Slane; a detailed index of all biographies; notes from the translator for each biography; and detailed genealogies of hundreds of Muslim figures, including Ibn Babak the Poet, As-Sulaihi, Malik Ibn Dinar, and Ar-Rabai the Grammarian. IBN KHALLIKAN (1211-1282) was a thirteenth century Arabic scholar who studied in Damascus, Mosul and Aleppo, specializing in the fields of language, theology, and law, including jurisprudence. He became a well-respected judge in Cairo, eventually becoming a chief judge in Damascus in 1261. Khallikan wrote several books, but his most well known was Deaths of Eminent Men and History of the Sons of the Epoch, often referred to as the "Biographical Dictionary," which took him almost 20 years to complete. Khallikan retired from his position as judge just before his death in 1282. He was one of the most well-known historians and theologians in Egypt.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the second half of the first millennium CE, the Christian Middle East fractured irreparably into competing churches and Arabs conquered the region, setting in motion a process that would lead to its eventual conversion to Islam.

Download or read book Ibn azm of Cordoba written by Camilla Adang and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2012-12-10 with total page 826 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume represents the state of the art in research on the controversial Muslim legal scholar, theologian and man of letters Ibn Ḥazm of Cordoba (d. 456/1064), who is widely regarded as one of the most brilliant minds of Islamic Spain. Remembered mostly for his charming treatise on love, he was first and foremost a fierce polemicist who was much criticized for his idiosyncratic views and his abrasive language. Insisting that the sacred sources of Islam are to be understood in their outward sense and that it is only the Prophet Muḥammad whose example may be followed, Ibn Ḥazm alienated himself from his peers. As a result, his books were burned and he was forced to withdraw from public life. Contributors are: Camilla Adang, Hassan Ansari, Samuel-Martin Behloul, Alfonso Carmona, Leigh Chipman, Maribel Fierro, Alejandro García Sanjuán, Livnat Holtzman, Samir Kaddouri, Joep Lameer, Christian Lange, Gabriel Martinez Gros, Luis Molina, Salvador Peña, Jose Miguel Puerta Vilchez, Rafael Ramón Guerrero, Adam Sabra, Sabine Schmidtke, Delfina Serrano, Bruna Soravia, Dominique Urvoy, Kees Versteegh and David Wasserstein.

IBN KHALLIKAN'S BIOGRAPHICAL DICTIONARY. AASIM IBN ABI N-NAJUD. Abii Bakr Aasim was the son of Abu 'n-Najtid Bahdala, a mawla to the tribe of Jadima Ibn Malik Ibn Nasr Ibn Koain Ibn Asad. His acquaintance with the koranic readings drew upon him general notice and ranked him as one of the seven great masters of that science. He had learned it from Abu Abd ar-Rahman as-Sulami (1) and Zirr Ibn Hubaish (2); he taught it to Abu Bakr Ibn Aiyash (see vol. I. page 553) and Abu Omar al-Bazzaz (3), but these two varied very much in their manner of reading certain words. Aasim died at Kufa, A.H. 545 127 (A. D. 744-5).--The word najM signifies a female wild ass not pregnant; others say that she is thus designated when keeping watch on the top of a hill.--Some persons state that Bahdala was his mother's name (not his father's). (1) Abo Abd ar-Rahman Abd Allah Ibn Habtb as-Sulami al-Kufi (a member of the tribe of Sulaim and a native of Kafa) was born in the lifetime of Muhammad. He learned to read the Koran under the tuition of the khalifs Othman and Ali, and then taught the same science in the great mosque of Kufa. He died A. H. 74 (A.D. 693-4).--(Ad-Dahabi's Tabakat al-Kurra.) (2) Abu Miryam Zirr Ibn Hubaish Ibn Hubasa, a member of the tribe of Asad and a native of Kufa, was one of the great masters in the art of reading the Koran. He was celebrated also as a philologist, and died at a yen advanced age, A. H. 82 (A. D. 701).--(Ad-Dahabi's Tabakat al-Kurrd, fol. 8.);3) Ab(t Omar Hafs Ibn Abi Dawud al-Bazzaz, the disciple of al-Aasim, was a native of Kufa and a mawla to the tribe of Asad. Born A H. 90 (A.D. 708-9); died A H. 180 (A.D. 796-7).--Tab. al-Kurra.) VOL. II. 1 ABU BURDA IBN ABI MUSA. Abu Burda Aamir was the son of Abu Musa Abd Allah Ibn Kais...

Book Ibn Abi Tahir Tayfur and Arabic Writerly Culture

Download or read book Ibn Abi Tahir Tayfur and Arabic Writerly Culture written by Shawkat M. Toorawa and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-08-02 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Toorawa re-evaluates the literary history and landscape of third to ninth century Baghdad by demonstrating and emphasizing the significance of the important transition from a predominantly oral-aural culture to an increasingly literate one. This transformation had a profound influence on the production of learned and literary culture; modes of transmission of learning; nature and types of literary production; nature of scholarly and professional occupations and alliances; and ranges of meanings of certain key concepts, such as plagiarism. In order to better understand these, attention is focused on a central but understudied figure, Ibn Abi Tahir Tayfur (d. 280 to 893), a writer, schoolmaster, scholar and copyist, member of important literary circles, and a significant anthologist and chronicler. This book will appeal to anyone interested in Arabic literary culture and history, and those with an interest in books, writing, authorship and patronage.
