# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Ibn Hazm was born in November 994 in the Córdoban Caliphate, in what is now Spain. He emerged as a leading proponent and codifier of the Zahiri school of Islamic jurisprudence, known for its literalist approach to Islamic texts. Over his lifetime he produced a reported 400 works, totaling some 80,000 pages, though only 40 survive. The Encyclopaedia of Islam names him one of the leading thinkers of the Muslim world, and he has been called one of the fathers of comparative religion. He died on 15 August 1064, leaving behind a body of work that spans theology, law, history, and philosophy.
