   • a. 1282 CE, Ibn Khallikan, Wafayāt al-ʾAʿyān‎, part 6, page 192:

     وله في النحو مقدمة حسنة، والمقصود منها أسرار الصنعة وهي عزيزة الوجود، وله كتاب «الكافي في علم العروض والقوافي» وكتاب في إعراب القرآن سماه «الملخص» رأيته في أربع مجلدات، وشروحه لكتاب الحماسة ثلاثة: أكبر وأوسط وأصغر، وله غير ذلك من التواليف

     He has a good introduction in grammar, aimed at the secrets of craftsmanship, which are precious. He also has the book “Al-Kafi fi Ilm al-'Arud wa al-Qawafi” (Al-Kafi In The Science of Prosody And Rhyme by Abu Zakariyya at-Tabrizi), and a book in the grammar of the Quran called 'Al-Mulakhass,' which I've seen in four volumes. He has three commentaries for the book 'Al-Hamasah': the major, the middle, and the minor. And he has other compositions as well.
