Summary
The Atabeg of Aleppo, al-Malik al-Zahir Ghazi, placed al-Qifti in charge of the diwan of finances — a task he undertook only reluctantly, but which brought him the honorific title al-Qadi al-Akram 1; the date is approximate within al-Zahir's reign (582–613), before his death and al-Qifti's resignation in 613 1.
