Ibn 'Abd al-Barr begins the hadith quest at Cordoba, about 385/995

Ibn 'Abd al-Barr took up the hadith quest in 'three hundred and eighty-something', years before the hafiz al-Khatib al-Baghdadi was born; he transmitted from Khalf ibn al-Qasim, 'Abd al-Warith ibn Sufyan, Abu al-Walid ibn al-Faradi and Abu 'Amr al-Talamanki — fewer than seventy shaykhs in all — heard the Sunan of Abu Dawud on a high isnad from Ibn 'Abd al-Mu'min and read al-Za'farani's book under Ibn Dayfun.
