Overview
In 784/1382-3 Zaki al-Din al-Kharrubi took the eleven-year-old Ibn Hajar on the pilgrimage to Mecca — he had already been once with his father — and stayed on with him until 786, dying soon after in Muharram 787 (February 1385). Ibn Hajar had already memorized the Qur'an by the age of nine, and the sojourn in Arabia did not interrupt his studies 1.
