Translation
✧ Mention of those among the notable figures who died in the year two hundred and seventy-nine. Aḥmad b. Muḥammad b. ʿĪsā b. al-Azhar, Abū al-ʿAbbās al-Birtī the judge. He narrated from Muslim b. Ibrāhīm, Abū al-Walīd al-Ṭayālisī, Abū Salamah al-Tabūdhakī, Abū Nuʿaym al-Faḍl b. Dukayn, and a great many others among the people of Baghdad, Kufa, and Basra. He was trustworthy, compiled the Musnad, took jurisprudence from Abū Sulaymān al-Jūzjānī, the companion of Muḥammad b. al-Ḥasan, and served as judge in Wāsiṭ and part of the districts of the Sawād. Then he served as judge in al-Sharqiyyah during the days of al-Muʿtamid. Al-Muwaffaq sent to him and to Ismāʿīl b. Isḥāq, the governor, when he had resolved to go down to Basra, demanding that they pay over the endowments in their hands. Ismāʿīl delivered what he had, while Abū al-ʿAbbās al-Birtī asked for a delay of three days to gather the money. He then took what was in his possession and handed it to those he considered upright among those who frightened him, and to trustees he trusted. When he was asked for the money, he said: 'I delivered it to its owners, and nothing of it remains with me.' He was therefore dismissed from the judgeship for this reason. Al-ʿAlāʾ b. Ṣāʿid related, saying: I saw the Messenger of God ﷺ in a dream, and Abū al-ʿAbbās entered upon him. The Messenger of God ﷺ rose to him, shook his hand, kissed him between the eyes, and said: 'Welcome to the one who acts according to my Sunnah and my example.' Then al-Birtī kept to his house and devoted himself to worship. He died on the western side of the City of Peace in Dhū al-Ḥijjah of this year. Aḥmad b.
