Overview
Nur al-Din Abu'l-Ma'ali Muhammad, son of Sultan al-Zahir Jaqmaq; born in Rajab 816, he read the Qur'an and gave himself to learning, memorising books and excelling quickly, keeping close to Shaykh Sa'd al-Din Ibn al-Dayri before the judgeship and studying under al-Kafiyaji among others — a lover of knowledge and of scholars. 1
His death
He held the emirate shortly after his father's accession, sitting at the head of the left wing; consumption struck him, and he died of a bowel complaint in Cairo on Sunday night 12 Dhu'l-Hijja 847. 1
