Overview
As a boy in Damascus, Ibn Rajab heard the leading scholars of his time: the editor of Jami' al-Ulum wal-Hikam counts Shams al-Din Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya (d. 751) among his most prominent teachers, so his hearing him preceded Ibn Qayyim's death in 751. 1
His early shaykhs
Among the shaykhs named in his mashyakha: Dawud ibn Ibrahim Ibn al-Attar (d. 752), Zayn al-Din Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Bakr ibn Ayyub (Ibn Qayyim's brother), Imad al-Din Ahmad ibn Abd al-Hadi al-Maqdisi (d. 754), Fath al-Din al-Qalansi (d. 765), Abu al-Fath al-Maydumi (d. 754), Ibn al-Khabbaz al-Abbadi (d. 756), Ibn Shaykh al-Salamiyya (d. 769), Ibn Qadi al-Jabal (d. 771), Ibn Qayyim al-Diya'iyya (d. 761), Abu al-Rabi' Ali al-Baghdadi (d. 742), Abu Sa'id al-Ala'i (d. 761) and Zaynab bint al-Kamal (d. 740). 1
