“…At the age of 18, he inherited his father's former position of teaching Shāfīʿī jurisprudence at the Shaykhū mosque (Leaman 2006: 618;Dhanani 2007Dhanani : 1112. Soon afterward, on Friday, 872 AH (1467), Suyūṭī reinitiated the study of Ḥadīth at the mosque of Ibn Ṭulūn after the ISSN 1110-2721 man who consistently represented Sunni piety 'at odds with Mamlūk usurpation of classical caliphal rights' (Banister 2015: 363).…”

This study investigates variations in the Manuscripts of Kitāb al-Fāshūsh fī Aḥkām Qarāqūsh. It compares linguistic data from ten manuscripts focusing on the registerial differences between Al-Suyūṭī' and Ibn Mammātī, and on Middle Arabic forms employed in their texts. Each manuscript is analyzed from the perspectives of textual criticism and sociolinguistics. Adopting a philological approach, this study has also made use of other fields, such as codicology, paleography, and corpus linguistics. Manuscripts have been compared to classify, date, and trace their origins. The study traces the anecdotal chain of transmission down through the generations to understand the development of this unique humorous folk narrative. The findings of this study reveal significant differences between Ibn Mammātī's manuscript and Al-Suyūṭī's manuscripts. However, they demonstrate similarities, too. The multidisciplinary approach used in this study has been influential in identifying many of the scribes examined and in highlighting some facts related to the manuscripts' intricate history of authorship. This study postulates that MS 59 Majāmīʿ Raṣīd is the oldest manuscript in the corpus. It is more faithful to the original and rifer with Middle Arabic than Al-Suyūṭī's manuscripts.

At the turn of the sixteenth century, Egyptian polymath Jalal al-Din al-Suyuti compiled a study about earthquakes he titled Kashf al-salsala ‘an wasf al-zalzala (Revealing the Chain of Echoes/Meaning in the Description of Earthquakes; shortened to Zalzala). Arguing that they constituted divine signs, al-Suyuti chronicled 130 earthquakes that occurred in the Muslim world. Curiously, Zalzala reemerged more than three centuries later in the modern world of colonial expansions. In the aftermath of the 1927 earthquake in Palestine, American seismologist and Stanford professor Bailey Willis would make use of Zalzala for his authoritative “Earthquakes in the Holy Land.” The chronological sections of Zalzala would become indispensable for future seismological scholarship. This article tracks Zalzala's journey into seismology. Seismology's reception of Zalzala was possible by splitting it into two parts (theological and factual), receiving the factual and bracketing the theological, and by converting Zalzala from a chronology of horrors to a catalog of normal quakes of a unified seismic earth. This splitting was at odds with Zalzala's own structure, which joined the two dimensions. Consequently, signs of divinity persisted in seismic factuality, engendering a seismological-theological hybrid. This hybrid tells of the enduring difficulty seismology faces in transforming the earthquake-disaster into a seismological object. It also tells of the persistence of wonder and the enduring relevance of ethical reflection.
