Summary
He was a charismatic popular Sūfī leader, who came to Cairo in 840, gained a local reputation and following, was patronized by Kamāl al-Dīn Ibn al-Bārizī and by ʿAbd al-Bāsiṭ al-Dimashqī, and attracted the attention of sultan al-Ẓāhir Jaqmaq and his court. Eventually, in 844, his uncompromising attitudes made him too many enemies and he was bannished from Cairo, to Damascus first and then “beyond the Euphrates”.
