Views

He was a contemporary of Suyuti, and between the two there were several scholarly challenges, Arabic: 'Khusumat'. The subject of the arguments were focused on al-Qastallani's Shaykh al-Sakhawi, but eventually al-Qastallani went to Suyuti to apologize. [Ahmad ibn Ali al-Dumyati, Muqaddimah Tahqiq Kitab al-Itqan fi Ulum al-Quran li Suyuti, Dar al-Hadith, 1425H]
