A unique Maml?k manuscript tells the story of a Damascene jurist. Ibn al-Zamlak?n?'s story revolves around a dramatic episode in the life of his master, the great judge T?j al-D?n al-Subk?, who is the central figure (hero) of the tale. The composer justly names his document maq?mah. In rhyming prose, it narrates several episodes. Transmitted by a narrator (or at least his voice), who distances himself from the event, it is a story about an escape from hardship of a hero who is supported by good characters and face some evil enemies. Yet, it is not a biography, but a dramatic plot that transmits a moral lesson. The maq?mah illuminates the relations between the Maml?k ruling military aristocracy and the religious establishment, as well as the competition that divided the Damascene urban elite.
