Ma Liangjun (1871-1957) was a renowned Hui Muslim Akhund in the Northwest and a famous Islamic scholar ('Hui' referring to an ethno-religious group of Chinese speaking Muslims mostly based in North-west China). The author's name is only given in Arabic in this publication, but 'Ma Liangjun' and 'Muhammad Yusuf Hijrani' are the same person; 'Ma' being synonymous with the Arabic 'Muhammad' among the Hui population and 'Hijrani' being the Arabic name Ma Liangjun appointed himself.
