"Al-Hiti was the author of a chronicle in which he registered all the Karaite scholars and their works down to Israel al-Maghrabi"
[edit]Although the above quote was referenced to Gottheil, Richard and Isaac Broydé. "Hiti, al-" it is, nonetheless, incorrect. In the Gottheil, Richard and Isaac Broydé. "Hiti, al-" reference they refer to the work published by Margoliouth. In Margoliouth's work, the Judeo-Arabic has the following
תם מר’ שׁמואל בן משׁה הרופא המערבי .... והוא אחר אלעלמא ואלחכמא
"then our master Samuel ben Moses HaRofe Ha-Maghrebi..... and he was the last of the scholars and wise men."
I am suggesting that the page be edited to
