Overview
Muhammad ibn Nuh al-Ujli, a man of hadith. In 218 AH he refused, together with Ahmad ibn Hanbal, Sajjada and al-Qawariri, to affirm that the Qur'an was created, and they were shackled. Then Sajjada gave in, and al-Qawariri followed him. Ahmad and Muhammad ibn Nuh were sent to the Romans, and news of the death of al-Ma'mun reached them before they arrived. 2
His story is linked to the inquisition over the createdness of the Qur'an, where his role is recorded as "the one tested". 3
