Scope and Content

This volume contains a biography of Mehmet Şemseddin İbn-i Ali (Emir Sultan), a saintly Şeyh of the Halveti order who settled in Bursa and married the daughter of Bayezit I. He died in 833 AH (1429-30 CE). The work is by an unidentified author. The text is divided into menkabe. This manuscript was likely copied in the second half of the 17th century CE, although the last folio has been supplied in a later hand.
