Abū al-Walid ‘Abd Allāh ibn Muḥammad ibn Yūsuf ibn Naṣr ibn al-Faraḍī al-Azdī al-Qurṭūbī ,[1] (21 December 962 – 20 April 1013)[1][2] best known as Ibn al-Faraḍī,[1][2] was an Andalusian[3] historian, chiefly known for his Tarikh ulama al-Andalus, a biographical dictionary about religious scholars from al-Andalus.[2] He was a faqīh (jurist) and a muhaddith (scholar of hadith).[1]
Life
Ibn al-Faraḍī began his studies in religious sciences in his native city of Córdoba,[1][2] and continued them in Toledo, Écija, and Medina-Sidonia.[1] Among his many of his well-known tutors were Ibn Awn Allāh (d. 988), Abū ‘Abd Allāh ibn Mufarrij (d. 990), ‘Abd Allāh ibn Qāsim al-Thagrī (d. 993), and Abū Zakariyya ibn Aidh (d. 985).[2] In the early 990s, he travelled to the East and pursued his studies in Kairouan, Cairo, Mecca and Medina.[1] On his return to al-Andalus, Ibn al-Faradi was appointed as a qadi ("religious judge") in Valencia.[1] He had several pupils, including Ibn Hayyan, Ibn 'Abd al-Barr, and Ibn Hazm.[1] He was killed in Córdoba on 20 April 1013 during the Fitna of al-Andalus.[1]
