Life
Jirjis (George) was probably born in Old Cairo in the first half of the 14th century. He held a high position under the Mamluks, which he probably inherited. The title al-makīn means "the powerful" and had been held by an earlier member of the family, the historian Jirjis ibn al-ʿAmīd. The sobriquet "the Younger" serves to distinguish the two, who have often been confused by modern authors. Their family is called the Banū al-ʿAmīd ("sons of the ʿamīd"). Jirjis's brother, al-Asʿad Ibrāhīm, served as the secretary (kātib) of the Mamluk dīwān al-jaysh (army council).Шаблон:Sfn
Jirjis retired to live as a hermit in the monastery of Dayr al-Qusayr in the Ṭura south of Cairo. There he composed the work known as al-Ḥāwī. There existed an autograph copy dated 1398/1399. He died sometime after that.Шаблон:Sfn

The first contains an introduction on Christology followed by five chapters and the second contains a further six chapters. Each chapter is subdivided into three sections. It contains extensive biblical exegesis, as well as Coptic apologetics against Judaism, Islam, the Melkites and the Dyophysites. It contains a refutation of astrology and the theory of taḥrīf, the corruption of the Christian Bible. He argues that Christianity has grace instead of a sharīʿa.Шаблон:Sfn
