Muhyi al-Dīn al-Maghribī and Ibn Abi al-Shukr are the same person. They both have the same date of birth and death. Both were born in Spain and died in Maragheh. And Both were astronomers.
The two articles are about the same scholar.
Muhyi al-Dīn is his name.
Ibn Abi al-Shukr is his Kunya (Arabic).
shouldn't we merge them together?
Both articles are linked to same page in the Arabic Wikipedia by the way.Frasfras17 (talk) 18:36, 9 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
