Al-Buwayti (231H)

Abu Ya'qub Yusuf ibn Yahya al-Misri al-Buwayti (231H)

Al-Imam, al-'Allamah, al-'Abid, az-Zahid, al-Faqih, al-Munadhir, Sayyid al-Fuqaha. A mountain among the mountains of science, one of the greatest pupils of Imam Shafi'i.

He was tested, imprisoned and chained for not having said that the Quran is created, he died in prison -may ALLAH have mercy on him-.
