近代以後に出版されたアブー・ハニーファの伝記としては、アズハル学院やカイロ大学で教えたムハンマド・アブーザハラ(wikidata) による伝記(M. Abū Zahra, Abū Ḥanīfa: ḥayātohū wa ʿaṣrohū, ārāʾohū wa feqhohū, Cairo, 1385/1965. )の質がよいとされる[1]。
出自
アブー・ハニーファのより詳しい名前は、アブー・ハニーファ・ヌウマーン・イブン・サービト・イブン・ズーター・イブン・マルズバーン Abū Ḥanīfa al-Nuʿmān b. Thābit b. Zūṭā b. Marzubān であると考えられている[1][4]。前出のアブーザハラや ʿAbd-Allāh (1983) が結論するところを先に述べると、おそらくは、東方のイラン世界からイラクに移り住んできた家系の出身である[1]。おそらくは祖父のズーターが、カーブルから(二サーから、あるいはテルメズからという説もある)からイラクのクーファに移住したようである[1][5]。
