Abu Bakr BÂ ‘ALAWÎ SHILLÎ (الشلى) , who was a member of the family , and died at Makkah , at the end of A.H. 1093. He entitled his work المشروع المروى فى مناقب بنى علوى . See regarding him and other works of his, Cat. Mus. Brit. 429 sq., 431, 741 sq. The present work was used by Muḥibbî (d. A.H. 1111), who also has a notice of the author (ib. 601). Cf.

It is followed by an appendix (خاتمة , fol. 272), which treats of the ‘’holy mantle, ‘’ i.e. the spiritual pedigree of the ‘Alawîs (فى خرقتهم الشريفة و ما فيها من الاسرار اللطيفة ) .Most of these pedigrees begin with the aforesaid ‘’Great Master,’’ who was the spiritual heir of the Shaikh Abu Madyan Shu’aib b. al-Ḥasan Maghribî Andalusî. This appendix concludes: و قد انتهى الكلام على وجه الذى شرطناه و الامر الذى التزمناه الخ. Written in a large inelegant hand, of the twelfth century. Carefully revised and emended.
