In the Arab scholarly biographies, such as Ibn Hajar al - ʿ Asqalani, al-Dhahabi, al- Suyuti, al - Maqrizi (* 1364, † 1442 ), as- Subki (* 1327, † 1370 in Cairo ) and Others, appears to be Name Ahmad ibn Shu ʿ aib ibn ʿ Alī.

Life

The Arab biographers provide only incomplete and uninformative reports about him. The most comprehensive biography of him written Dhahabi in the 14th century, with its references to earlier biographical sources and oral traditions. In his study trips " to gain knowledge " ( fī ʿ ilm Talab al - ), which he began 845, he studied with the famous tradition Aryans in Khorasan, Iraq, Damascus and Hijaz. According to his study trips, he settled in Egypt, where he developed his scientific activities in the field of hadith and Koranic exegesis and there wrote his most important works. In legal doctrine he followed the Shafi ʿ itischen school; therefore it is also called the " class books " of the Shafi'i of as- Subki in a short biography. One of his numerous pupils in Egypt was at- Tahawi (* 853, † 933 ) of the then most famous theoreticians in the field of Hadith.

In his private life in Egypt he was known for his love of women, what to know Dhahabi and the Egyptian local historian al - Maqrizi to report in detail in their scholarly biographies: he had four wives and entertained several purchased concubines, but as his wives which he equally had treated. His students claimed that his still radiant and young at an advanced age appearance to the enjoyment of nabīdh - a manufactured according to the region from different types of fruit, intoxicating drink - which he gladly gave himself, would have to owe.

According to the Egyptian local historian Ibn Yūnus as- Sadafī (* 894, † 958 ), to evaluate the city's history Ibn Hajar al - ʿ Asqalani and al-Dhahabi in their biographical works, left an- Nasa'i shortly before his death Fustat and returned in the year 914 back to Damascus. Supporters of the Umayyad interviewed him there for nice ( FADA ʾ il ) of Mu ʿ āwiya I., about which he then remarked, with snide remarks. Because of his affection for Ali and open bekundeter rejection of the Umayyad he was allegedly beaten up by their supporters in the main mosque of Damascus ( Umayyad Mosque ). It drove him to Ramla, where he died in the year 915. Due to the circumstances of his death, he is regarded as a martyr. His grave is supposedly in Jerusalem. Other sources report that he was buried in Mecca.
