Muhammad bin Ahmed bin Juzayy Al Gharnati (Arabic: أبو القاسم، محمد بن أحمد بن محمد بن عبد الله، ابن جزي الكلبي الغرناطي) was an Andalusian Maliki-Ash'ari scholar and poet of Arab origin.[1][2][3]

Works

He wrote many religious works such as his al-Qawanin al-Fiqhiyyah or "The Laws of Jurisprudence" [4] a comparative manual of the jurisprudence of the four Sunni madhhabs (Maliki, Hanafi, Shafi`i, Hanbali) with emphasis on the Maliki school and notices of the views of the Ẓāhirī school and others. He is also noted for his tafsir of the Qur'an al-Tashil li Ulum al-Tanzil, his book on legal theory Taqrīb al-Wuṣūl ‘ilā ‘Ilm al-Uṣūl or The Nearest of Paths to the Knowledge of the Fundamentals of Islamic Jurisprudence, which he wrote for his son, as well as his treatise on Sufism based on the Qur'an, The Refinement of the Hearts.

Family

He had three sons. His son Abu Abdullah Ibn Juzayy is mainly known as the writer to whom Ibn Battuta dictated an account of his travels. He wrote "The Travels of Ibn Battuta" (Riḥlat Ibn Baṭūṭah) in 1352-55. It is clear that he copied passages from previous works such as the description of Medina from the Rihla of Ibn Jubayr and the description of Palestine by Mohammed al-Abdari al-Hihi.[5]
