Abstract

Ṣalāḥ al-Dīn Abū Saʿīd Khalīl b. Kaykaldī b. ʿAbdallāh al-ʿAlāʾī (d. 761/1359) was a Shāfiʿī scholar who specialised in ḥadīth, Qurʾān exegesis, Islamic law, and the Arabic language. He was born in Damascus in 694/1295 and was educated by its shaykhs (of whom the sources name at least twenty), travelled to continue his studies in Cairo, and spent the second half of his life in Jerusalem. He held the posts of lecturer at the Madrasa al-Ṣalāḥiyya and teacher of ḥadīth at the Tankiziyya, wrote dozens of treatises, and issued legal verdicts.
