Ibrahim ibn 'Abd Rabbih the Sufi

Ibrahim ibn 'Abd Rabbih the Sufi; al-Manawi in his Tabaqat calls him a witness to piety numbered among the fortunate, who studied under Shaykh Muhammad al-Ghumari, Shaykh Madin and others, lived in a cell at the Zahid mosque, and was believed in by the people — he would teach the dhikr formula and was among the men of spiritual states. ²

He once entered Shaykh Madin's house on the mawlid and ate all the feast, and once ate a whole cow's meat then fasted a year after; among his marvels — related by Shaykh Amin al-Din, imam of the Ghumari mosque — he told him "your daughter can answer our needs; between him and his brother is a span of earth — ask her and she will answer you"; when his daughter fell ill they sought her a watermelon, found none, went to his grave and said "the promise," and returning after night prayer found a watermelon on their stairs from no known source; he died in Safar 878. ²
