Other accounts[]
Other works have been attributed to Ibn Hazm as well. Abu Abd al-Rahman Ibn Aqil al-Zahiri, the primary biographer of Ibn Hazm in the modern era, attributed to Ibn Hazm an epistle in exegesis of the 94th verse of the chapter of Yunus in the Qur'an as well as an exposition of different world religions, though Ihsan Abbas mentions that the reference to these works is hard to find.[6] Ibn Aqil has two large works covering both the influence of Ibn Hazm's common works and cataloging his rarities, Ibn Hazm khilal alfa 'aam and Nawadir al-imam Ibn Hazm respectively.[7][8]
