Was the descendant of Abú Ḥanífah of Kúfah. His profession was to deliver discourses and pronounce judical decisions, but renouncing this office he became the disciple of Shaykh Faríd Ganj i Shakkar and reached a high degree of virtue. To whomsoever the Shaykh Faríd gave a certificate of vicegerency, he would send him to Jamálu'ddín on whose approval the certificate took effect. If he did not approve the Shaykh would say that what Jamál tore up Faríd could not repair. He was buried in Hánsí.
