Summary

Abd al-Aziz ibn Ja'far ibn Ahmad ibn Dara, known as Ghulam al-Khallal, author of the two books al-Shafi and al-Tanbih in the school's fiqh ¹. He wrote on his copy of al-Kharaqi's Mukhtasar that al-Kharaqi had differed from him in sixty questions he did not name; Judge Abu al-Husayn ibn al-Farra' traced them and found ninety-eight ². He died in 363 AH ¹.

Biting and the liability for injury it causes (add)

In the lexicon, add is gripping a thing with the teeth and holding it. If a person bites another without right and a wound results, the biter must pay the damages for the wound, assessed as a just award by experts. If one man bites another's hand and the bitten man pulls it free so that the biter's front teeth fall out, most jurists hold that there is no liability, relying on a prophetic judgement in such a case; the Shafi'is limit this to a bitten man who chose the easiest means of release, and the preferred Maliki view requires compensation.
