Ibn Shakir Al-Ketbi (Arabic:ابن شاكر الكتبي) (died: 764 AH / 1363 CE),[1][2] was an Arab historian and writer.[3]

His life    [edit]

Muhammad bin Shakir bin Ahmed bin Abd al-Rahman bin Shakir bin Harun bin Shakir, nicknamed Salah al-Din, who was born in Daran but lived in Damascus. It was heard from Ibn al-Shuhnah, al-Muzzi, and other scholars of his country, but most of his culture - apparently - was obtained through secrecy and trading in books. He was very poor before he found the appropriate craft. When he became a clerk, he was saved from his work a great fortune. Perhaps it was the quality and clarity of his handwriting, and that mastery of scapegoats as a whole (as indicated by the copy of the missed handwriting), which ensured for him the popularity of people for what he copied from the books. His good treatment in commerce gained him more than that, as he was described as being gentle in his treatment of people. He was also studying some of his acquaintances and benefiting. However, he was not well-known among his contemporaries for his culture, if he described himself in the introduction of Alfawat by reading a lot of history books. He did not obtain the of the culture and the accuracy of judgment  as the famous Warraqeen like Abo-AlHayan Al-Tawhidi and Yaqout Al-Hamwi. But his culture remained subtly and coordinated. It seems to those who read the copy of Al-Fawat that Ibn Shakir did not care much about taking into account the grammatical and linguistic origins, and perhaps his knowledge of grammar and language was simple and naive, and this seems clear if we compare him with his contemporaries authors of the translation books, they tend - for the most part - to use a simplified style in which much of the common hadith nature is, but they do not reach the amount of Ibn Shakir in that. We do not know definitely when Ibn Shakir was born. And in one of the versions of the Al-Durar Al-Kaminah that this was the year of 686, which is not an excluded date, but we know for sure that he lived until the month of Ramadan in the year 764. Ibn Katheer says: “On the eleventh Saturday of Ramadan of the aforementioned year, we prayed  funeral service in the afternoon for Sheikh Muhammad bin Shakir al-Ketbi.” A month later, on Shawwal 10, 764 to be precise, his contemporary Sheikh Salah al-Din al-Safadi died. He was buried in the small door cemetery.

His writing[edit]

Some of his books:

  • Eyes of history: (transliterate: ʿyoun altāryẖ) Haji Khalifa mentioned that it is in six volumes, and the owner of Hadeyat alʿārfyn said that it is in 28 volumes. Ibn Katheer referred to him when he said: He collected a useful history of about ten volumes,Perhaps the difference in the number of parts of the book is due to a difference in the nature of the copy that each one of them viewed. In the libraries of Istanbul, several examples of copies of this book refer to this disparity in fragmentation (and this book was published in Iraq with the study and investigation of Dr. Faisal Al-Samer and Dr. Nabila Abdel-Moneim Daoud).
  • The Flower Garden in the Poetry Garden, mentioned in Hadeyat alʿārfyn. (transliterate: rwḍat alazhar fy ḥdyqat alʾašʿar).
  • Fawat Al-wafiyat and the footer.[4]
