ثم أحضر منطاش نسخ الفتوى في الملك الظاهر برقوق، وقد أزيد فيها: واستعان على قتال المسلمين بالكفار، وحضر الخليفة المتوكل على الله، والقضاة الأربعة، والشيخ سراج الدين عمر البلقيني، وولده جلال الدين عبد الرحمن قاضي العسكر، وابن خلدون المالكي، وابن الملقن، وقاضي القضاة بدر الدين محمد بن أبي البقاء، وجماعة أخر، فحضر الجميع بحضرة السلطان الملك المنصور بالقصر الأبلق وقدمت إليهم الفتوى فكتبوا عليها بأجمعهم كتابة شنيعة على قدر النهي، وانصرفوا إلى منازلهم.
Summary
791 AH, after 21/11
Minṭāsh now produced a copy of the decision (al-fatwā) in reference to al-Ẓāhir Barqūq, in which, however, there had been inserted the additional charge: “and he called upon the infidels to assist in fighting Muslims.” Present were the caliph al-Mutawakkil ʿalā Allāh; the four judges; the shaykh Sirāj al-Dīn ʿUmar al-Bulqīnī and his son Jalāl al-Dīn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān the military cadi; Ibn Khaldūn the Malikite; Ibn al-Mulaqqin; Chief judge Badr al-Dīn Muḥammad ibn ʾAbī al-Baqāʾī; and a number of others. In the presence of sultan al-malik al-Manṣūr in the Striped Palace the document was presented to those assembled, and they all ignominiously signed it at dictation. Then they went to their homes.
