Abu Hanifa Al-Qaadhi Al-Nu'man is different from Abu Hanifa Al-Nu'maan of the Hanafi sect. Al-Qaadhi Al-Nu'man was the scholar of Fatemi government in Egypt that is why he is called by some scholars as Al-Masri. He dies in 363 Hijri while Abu Hanifa Al-Nu'man died in 150 Hijri.

Al-Qadhi Abu Hanifa Al-Nu'man is also known as Ibn Hayyoon ابن حيّون .

He had many books including his most famous book known as Da'aa'im Al-Islam دعائم الإسلام
