Overview
Adud al-Din Abu al-Fadl Abd al-Rahman al-Iji, a theologian and scholar of the principles of jurisprudence, and the author of works in both disciplines. The sources say he was imprisoned in the fortress of Dumiyar until he died in prison. He died in 756 AH. 1
The printed text gives only the Hijri year, and the date has not been converted to the Gregorian calendar. The cause of his imprisonment and its details need an additional source.
