Ibn al-Tammar (seemingly being abu Bakr Husain al-Tammar, says Kraus) was a physician and he too had some disputes with al-Razi, which is documented by abu Hatim al-Razi in A'lam al-Nubuwwah.

In Ibn Khallikân's biography of Gûkbûrî it is said that Zayn al-Dîn was blessed by Providence with a great number of other children, and this was evidently one of several sired in his old age.
As usual Ibn Shaddâd is more concerned with the madrasah's professors than the building or the patron, but it is valuable to know that many men worked there, even if some of them came in only to collect their stipends.

 Malik Ibn Anas - LoveToKnow 1911
When Mahommed ibn `Abdallah, the 'Alid, rose in A.D. 762 at Medina against the 'Abbasids, Malik gave a fatwa, or legal opinion, that the oath of allegiance to the `Abbasids was invalid, as extorted by force.
For this independence he was severely scourged by the 'Abbasid governor, who, apparently, did not dare to go beyond scourging with a man of his standing with the people.
It is said that he retired from all active, public life and even neglected plain, public duties, replying to reproaches, " Not every one can speak in his own excuse " (Ibn Qutaiba, Ma 'arif, 250).

 Ibn ar-Rawandi (c. 910?)
Medieval biographical dictionaries agree that Ibn al-Husain Ahmad ibn Yahya ibn Ishaq ar-Rawandi lived in Baghdad, but differ as to the form of his name and the date of his death, and indicate that he was intellectually unstable and that very little was known about his real thought.
Ibn ar-Rawandi's real thought remained somewhat unknown primarily because in the Middle Ages the authorities discouraged the reading of his books and banned their circulation.
In az-Zumurrud, Ibn ar-Rawandi focuses on proving the falsehood of prophets and prophecy, which he rejects in Islam and in general.

Abd al-Malik ibn Zuhr was going to the palace of prince of Faithful in Seville, and on his way, at Abul-Khayr bath, near Ibn Mu'amil's house, found an ill man who had a great tumor, his belly was swollen and his complexion became pale.

It was then, according to the testimony of al-Sam'ani related by Ibn Khallikan, that al-Shahrastani died in his native village 'towards the end of Sha'ban 548 [November 1153]'.

Apparently the Holy Prophet's giving the name of Muhammad ibn Talhah seems incorrect since from some traditions it appears that the Prophet had reserved it for a son of Amir al-mu'minin and he was Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyyah.
Similarly, if the surname of Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr was on the ground that his son's name was Qasim, who was among the theologians of Medina, then what is the sense in `A'ishah having suggested it.
However, Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyyah was prominent in righteousness and piety, sublime in renunciation and worship, lofty in knowledge and achievements and heir of his father in bravery.

Of this opinion was Malik Ibn Ans, who declared as to the expression of GOD'S' sitting on his throne, in particular, that though the meaning is known, yet the manner is unknown; and that it is necessary to believe it, but heresy to make any questions about it.
