Tomb of Mujir al-Din

Photograph at the Tomb of Mujir al-Din Tomb

Mujīr al-Dīn al-ʿUlaymī (Arabic: مجير الدين العليمي; 1456–1522), often simply Mujir al-Din, was a Jerusalemite qadi and historian whose principal work chronicled the history of Jerusalem and Hebron in the Middle Ages. Entitled al-Uns al-Jalil bi-tarikh al-Quds wal-Khalil ("The glorious history of Jerusalem and Hebron") (c. 1495), it is considered to be invaluable, constituting "the most comprehensive and detailed source for the history of Jerusalem" written in its time.
