Aisha bint Ibrahim ibn Khalil al-Ba'labakkiyya (Ibnat al-Shara'ihi)

Aisha bint Ibrahim ibn Khalil al-Ba'labakkiyya al-Dimashqiyya — in a note by Kahhala, Aisha bint Ibrahim ibn Khalil ibn Abd Allah … al-Zubaydiyya, known as Ibnat al-Shara'ihi — was an accomplished, devout hadith transmitter, born in Damascus around 760 AH; his entry in A'lam al-Nisa' follows al-Sakhawi's al-Daw' al-Lami'. ^{1 2}

She was made to hear much from the students of al-Fakhr ibn al-Bukhari and others in Damascus, Cairo and Baalbek, among them Ibn Umayla and al-Salah ibn Abi Umar, and received licences from a group including Ibn Nubata and Zaynab bint al-Damamisi. ²

She transmitted a great deal; a number heard from her, such as Ibn Nasir al-Din, and read to her works including al-Dhahabi's selection from al-Fakhr's mashyakha, the "chain of firsts" hadith with its condition, the fifty-seventh part of al-Ahadith al-Mukhtara and the eleventh part of al-Tirmidhi's Jami'; Kahhala lists manuscript copies of these parts among his sources. ²

She died on Wednesday 16 Safar 842 AH and was buried in the Bab Tuma cemetery in Damascus. ²
