Al Fairozabadi

Works getting pretty busy now. It busy season for us auditors. No that doesn't mean taxes. We don't do taxes. We audit financial statement of corporations. Please don't ask me to do your taxes. I don't even do my own taxes.

I was skimming through my Arabic dictionaries and came across some thing cool. I was reading the publisher's preface to Al Qamoos Al Muheet, which is also known by its author's name, al Fairozabadi.

The publisher mentioned about al Fairozabadi:

Ibn Hajr mentioned that he was so quick at memorizing that he would say "I memorize 200 lines before going to sleep".
