Imam Jalal al-Din as-Suyuti: `Abd al-Rahman ibn Kamal al-Din Abi
Bakr, Jalal al-Din al-Misri al-Suyuti al-Shafi`i al-Ash`ari, also known
as Ibn al-Asyuti (849-911), the
mujtahid imam and renewer of the
tenth Islamic century, foremost
hadith master, jurist, Sufi,
philologist, and historian, he authored works in virtually every Islamic
science.
Born to a Turkish mother and non-Arab father and
raised as an orphan in Cairo, he memorised the Qur'an at eight, then
several complete works of Sacred Law, fundamentals of jurisprudence, and
Arabic grammar; after which he devoted himself to studying the Sacred
Sciences under about a hundred and fifty shaykhs. A giant among
contemporaries, he remained alone, producing a sustained output of
scholarly writings until his death at the age of sixty-two. He was
buried in
Hawsh Qawsun in Cairo.
