Notes
- Lisan ad-Din Ibn al-Khatib gives his name as 'Abu at-Tayyib' in his الإحاطة في أخبار غرناطة, while Ahmad al-Maqqarigives his name as 'Abu al-Baqa in his نفح الطيب من غصن الأندلس الرطيب. The latter has become the common name, but 'Abu at-Tayyib' is probably the correct one as Ibn al-Khatib lived closer in time to the poet.
