Alam al-Din Abu al-Qasim al-Tujibi

ʿAlam al-Dīn Abu ʾl-Qāsim ibn Yūsuf ibn Muḥammad al-Balansī al-Sabtī al-Tujībī (1271–1329) was a North African Muslim scholar. Born and educated in Ceuta, his teachers were Ibn Abi ʾl-Rabīʿ, al-Qabṭūrī, Ibn al-Muraḥḥal and Ibn al-Shāṭ.^[1] He continued his studies in ḥadīth (Islamic traditions) in 1295 when he undertook the ḥajj (pilgrimage) to Mecca. He travelled through al-Andalus, Tunis and Alexandria and crossed the sea from ʿAydhāb to Jidda.^[2] His writings, all in Arabic, include:

• Bārnāmaj (or Mashyakha), a historical bibliography^[3][4]
• Mustafād al-riḥla wa ʾl-ightirāb (The Benefits of Travel and Being Abroad),^[2] a narrative of his travels (riḥla) in 1295, of which only the second part of three survives^[1][4]
• al-Targhīb fi ʾl-jihād, which is dedicated to Sultan Abū Saʿīd ʿUthmān II^[1]
• a taqyīd on al-Dimyāṭī's Muʿjam mashāʾikhihi fī ṭalab al-ḥadīth^[1]

The Bārnāmaj and the Mustafād have been published.^[1] Ana Ramos Calvo defended a doctoral thesis on the Bārnāmaj in 1976.^[4]
