Summary
Baha' al-Din al-Tanukhi, the qadi Ibrahim b. Abi'l-Yusr Shakir b. 'Abdallah al-Shafi'i, the eloquent katib; father of Taqi al-Din Isma'il. He transmitted by ijaza from Shahda, and held the judgeship of Ma'arra in his youth for five years, saying: 'I judged for five — five of my life while youth was in bloom; how often foes lowered my price, yet none said "so-and-so bribed me".' He died in Muharram 630. 1
