Ibn al-Shihna


Abu al-Walīd Ibn al-Shihna was a Mamluk-era Syrian Hanafi scholar and historian.
His Rawḍ al-manāẓir fī ʿilm al-awāʾil wa l-awāẖir details the talks he held with Timur as the representative of the scholars of Aleppo after Timur's conquest of Aleppo in 1400.
His son, Muḥibb ad-Dīn ʾAbū al-Fadl Muḥammad Ibn aš-Šiḥna al-Halabī was the chief judge of Aleppo for the Hanafi school of law.
