Overview

Abu Ishaq Ibrahim b. Mansur b. Muslim, the Egyptian Shafi'i jurist known as al-'Iraqi; khatib and imam of Egypt's old congregational mosque, he commented Abu Ishaq al-Shirazi's Muhadhdhab in ten parts, a fine commentary; he was not of Iraq — he had travelled to Baghdad and studied there a while, so he was named for it; at Baghdad he read fiqh under Abu Bakr Ahmad b. al-Husayn al-Armawi and counted among Abu Ishaq al-Shirazi's pupils. 1
