Faradj al-Nāṣirī al-Bā'unī al-Shāfi'ī, who began life as a weaver in the village of Bā'ūn (or Bā'ūna) in Hauran. Leaving around 750/1349 for Nazareth, Nāṣir had the following prominent descenants before the dynasty disappears from the historical record:〔W. A. S. Khalidi, 'AL-BĀ'ŪNĪ', in ''The Encyclopaedia of Islam'', new edn by H. A. R. Gibb and others (Leiden: Brill, 1960-2009), I 1109-10.〕 * Nāṣir * * Ismā'īl (who became a sufi and deputy qadi in Nazareth) * * Aḥmad (b. Nazareth c. 751/1350, d. Damascus 816/1413). He 'was at various times the Friday preacher at the al-Aqṣá Mosque in Jerusalem, the Friday preacher at the Umayyad Mosque in Damascus, the Shafi‘i judge of Damascus and, for two months, of Egypt, as well'.〔Th. Emil Homerin, 'Living Love: The Mystical Writings of ʿĀ’ishah al-Bāʿūniyyah (d. 922/1516)', ''Mamluk Studies Review'', 7 (2003), 211-34 (p. 211); http://mamluk.uchicago.edu/MSR_VII-1_2003-Homerin_pp211-234.pdf.〕 Aḥmad became ''shaykh al-shuyūkh'' under Sultan Barqūq (r. 784–801/1382–99), 'but he fell from royal grace for refusing to lend the sultan funds from religious endowments. Aḥmad wrote a commentary on the Quran and a poem on proper religious belief, and was considered an excellent preacher'.〔 * * * Ibrāhīm (b. Safed 777/1375, d. Damascus 870/1464×65; inter alia, deputy qadi of Damascus; khatib of the Umayyad Mosque and the Al-Aqsa Mosque; ''nāẓir al-ḥaramayn'' (supervisor of the Muslim holy places of Jerusalem and Hebron); and teacher of Al-Sakhawi). 'His fine literary abilities won him the title "Master of Literature in the Land of Syria".'〔Th. Emil Homerin, 'Living Love: The Mystical Writings of ʿĀ’ishah al-Bāʿūniyyah (d. 922/1516)', ''Mamluk Studies Review'', 7 (2003), 211-34 (p. 212); http://mamluk.uchicago.edu/MSR_VII-1_2003-Homerin_pp211-234.pdf.〕 * * * Muḥammad (b. Damascus 780/1378, d. Damascus 871/1466; khatib of the Umayyad Mosque) * * * Yūsuf (b. Jerusalem 805/1402, d. Damascus 880/1475; qadi in Safed, Tripoli, Aleppo, and Damascus, 'fondly remembered as one of the best Shafi‘i judges of Damascus')〔Th.

Damascus, d. Damascus 922/1516; possibly the most prolific female writer of the Middle Ages)〔Tahera Qutbuddin, 'Women Poets', in ''Medieval Islamic Civilisation: An Encyclopedia'', ed. by Josef W.

This strongly suggests their attachment to this Sufi and his descendents, who were affiliated with the Urmawī branch of the Qādirīyah order'.〔Th.
