Overview

Sallam al-Qari, known by the kunya Abu al-Mundhir, and called by the people of justice Abu al-Mudabbir. Ibn al-Nadim reports that he found his slave with his slave-girl, and asked him about it. The slave said: "This is God's decree." Sallam said to him: "You are free, because of your knowledge of decree and destiny." And he married him the slave-girl 2.

The entry needs an additional source. The data does not record his period, nor anything beyond this anecdote.
