أبو نصر ابن الحناط الشيرازي

أبو نصر ابن الحناط الشيرازي

Abu Nasr ibn al-Hannat al-Shirazi studied fiqh under his father Abu Abd Allah al-Hannat; a jurist and theorist of legal method (usuli), eloquent, a Sufi and a poet, he died at Fayd on the road to Mecca. He wrote many works on fiqh and its principles, and the jurists of Shiraz learned from him ¹. The book relates that he, or his father, spoke in a session of disputation and impressed those present; Abu Sa'd Bishr ibn al-Husayn al-Dawudi objected to him, and he answered with what the book transmits ¹. The author (al-Shirazi) does not record the year of his death.
