This text is an Ottoman Turkish translation of the Mirṣād al-ᶜibād, the well-known Sufi work of Najm al-Dīn Dāyah. The translation, made in 825 AH (1421-22 CE) and dedicated to Sultan Murat II, was completed by Kasım İbn-i Mahmud Karahısari. The current copy of this work is defective at the end. It was completed in two different hands, probably at the end of the 16th century.
