Faḍāʾil Abī Ḥanīfa

فضائل أبي حنيفة

Ibn Abī al-ʿAwwām ابن أبي العوام

Abū al-Qāsim ʿAbd Allāh b. Muḥammad b. Aḥmad al-Saʿdī

The oldest extensive biography of Abū Ḥanīfa to survive: 900 reports with full chains, in three parts (virtues, a musnad, and his students). The grandfather wrote it and his grandson, a judge of Egypt, made the fair copy with a few additions.
