Al-Khatib al-Baghdadi dies and is buried beside Bishr al-Hafi, 7 Dhu al-Hijja 463/1071

Al-Khatib fell ill at Baghdad in mid-Ramadan and worsened at the opening of Dhu al-Hijja; he appointed Abu al-Fadl ibn Khayrun his executor, made his books a waqf in his hands and gave away all his money in charity and to the hadith folk, and died in the fourth hour of Monday 7 Dhu al-Hijja 463. He was carried out the next morning to the west side; the qadi Abu al-Husayn ibn al-Muhtadi bi-llah led the prayer with four takbirs, and he was buried at Bab Harb beside Bishr al-Hafi, in the grave that Abu Bakr ibn Zahra' the Sufi had prepared for himself and yielded; the imam Abu Ishaq al-Shirazi was among those who carried the bier.
