Malik Nāṣir al-Dīn son of ʿAyn al-Mulk, one of the virtuous, generous and learned, used to live there; he died a martyr on the island of Sandābūr when it was conquered, and I visited his tomb there; we shall mention him later. In this city also lived the jurist and physician Jamāl al-Dīn al-Maghribī, of Granadan origin.
