Ibrahim an-Nazzam

Abū Isḥāq Ibrāhīm Ibn Sayyār Ibn Hāni‘ an-Naẓẓam (Arabic: أبو إسحاق بن سيار بن هانع النظام‎) (c. 775 – c. 845) was a Mu'tazilite theologian and poet. He was the nephew of Abu al-Hudhayl, the first systematic Mu'tazilite theologian; al-Jahiz was one of his students. His theological doctrines were not accepted by his contemporaries and his works are lost except for a few fragments.[1]
