His father's love, a gift from God, bestowed upon him the land of his fathers. He was released, and it was said that he would go to his father's land. After he fulfilled that promise and left the city, he regretted what he had done, were it not for God Almighty's decree.

His burial in his birthplace. (History of Sudan, p. 122) Alongside these spiritual proofs, we find more positive proofs of the author's true personality. On page 222, the author speaks of his birth, mentioning the death of several of his relatives. We have already presented part of this page as evidence of the author's birth date.

The Orientalist Huda relied on three manuscripts in verifying the history of Sudan.

The two manuscripts are indicative regarding the author's name. On the first page of the manuscripts, there is no title of the book or the author's name. Rather, it begins with these words: "The compiler of this... also a brief biography of the author. As for the manuscript..."

The pages belong to Abd al-Rahman ibn Abd Allah. Therefore, there is no doubt regarding this point. All that can be said is that al-Sa'di, at the beginning of his work, recompiled the dictionary of Ahmad Baba and added his own work to it. However, at this stage, confirming this might be unacceptable. Al-Sa'di mentioned Ahmad Baba in several places in his book without any specific reference. Therefore, we can question the reason for him doing so if he had relied on his words. Furthermore, we do not observe any difference in style between the first and second parts, while the second part cannot be the work of Ahmad Baba because most of its events are later than his death. In addition, throughout the book, we find the same grammatical errors and the same expressions belonging to the spoken language, which are similar to the dictionary of Ahmad Baba. Finally, there is no single piece of evidence that Ahmad Baba is the one who wrote the history of Sudan.
