Shams al-Din Abu al-Muzaffar Yusuf ibn Kizoghlu (c. 581AH/1185–654AH/1256),[1] popularly known as Sibṭ ibn al-Jawzī (Arabic: سبط ابن الجوزي) was a writer, preacher and historian.[2]

Biography[edit]

Born in Baghdad, the son of a Turkish freedman and Ibn al-Jawzi's daughter, he was raised by his grandfather.[1] After his grandfather's death he moved to Damascus, where he worked under the Ayyubids Sultans al-Mu'azzam, an-Nasir Dawud, and al-Ashraf.[3] In 1229, on an-Nasir's command, he gave a fiery sermon in the Umayyad Mosque denouncing the treaty of Jaffa with the Crusaders as Damascus prepared for the coming siege at the hands of al-Ashraf.[4]

He is the grandson of the Hanbali scholar Abul-Faraj Ibn Al-Jawzi. His title "Sibt ibn al-Jawzi" denotes that he was the sibṭ (grandson) of Ibn al-Jawzi from his daughter's side.[citation needed]

Unlike his Hanbali grandfather, he was of the Hanafi madhhab, which was the judicial school common to those of Turkish descent and preferred by the Ayyubid Sultans.[1] He has also been described as having Shia tendencies, most notably by al-Dhahabi.[3] His historical writings, which include more critical accounts of Uthman compared to other sources, and Ibn Kathir's obituary of him have been given as evidence supporting this.[3]

He was Arab historian.[5]

One thought on “Cannabaceae”

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
