Abū al-Ḥasan ʿAlī ibn Muḥammad ibn Muḥammad ash-Shaybānī, better known as ʿAlī ʿIzz ad- At the age of twenty-one he settled with his father in Mosul to continue his studies, where he devoted himself to the study of history and Islamic tradition.
Biography
Ibn al-Athir belonged to the Shayban lineage
He was the brother of Majd ad-Dīn and Diyā' ad-Dīn Ibn Athir. Al-Athir lived a scholarly life in Mosul, often visited Baghdad and for a time traveled with Saladin's army in Syria. He later lived in Aleppo and Damascus. His chief work was a history of the world, al-Kamil fi at-Tarikh (The Complete History).
Death
Ibn al-Athir died in 1232/1233, and was buried in a cemetery in Mosul, at the district of Bab Sinjar.[13] His tomb was built in the 20th century and was located in the middle of a road, after the cemetery was cleared for modernization.[14] It became a site of an erroneous legend, which identified it as a tomb of a female mystic.[15] However, the government later installed a marble stele to indicate that it was Ibn al-Athir's tomb.[16][17] His tomb was also regarded in local Yazidi folklore as being the grave of a girl who married the Emir of Mosul but died of poisoning.[18]
The tomb of Ibn al-Athir was bulldozed by members of the
