Al-Safadi's lecture tour at Aleppo, 759/1358

Al-Safadi travelled widely in Syria on lecture tours that brought him to Aleppo in 759/1358, as a sama' note in his Tashih al-tashif records; most of his time was divided between Damascus and Cairo and between his government post and his scholarly work.
