About this record
- Content
Qāḍīʹzādah al-Rūmī's (قاضي زاده الرومي; d. after 1440) commentary on the Ashkāl al-ta’sīs (أشكال التأسيس) by Shams al-Dīn Muḥammad ibn Ashraf al-Ḥusaynī al-Samarqandī (شمس الدين محمد بن أشرف الحسيني السمرقندي, d. 1302).
A title line added by a later hand at the head of f. 2v misattributes the text to Qāḍīzāde al-Rūmī's patron the sultan Ulugh Beg (ألغ بك, d. 1449).
The text contains numerous diagrams.
Begins (f. 2v, lines 4-8):
الحمد لله الذي خلق كل شيء بقدر وقدر له ما يليق من أشكال
وصور والصلوة على من ثم بمقدمه رسم دائرة الرسالة والتشريع
وحق بمجيئه أمر التوحيد المزهق لا باطيل الشريك وتماثيل التثليث
والتربيع وعلى آله وأصحابه أضلاع زاوية النبوة وأعمده قاعدة
المروة والفتوة ...
Ends (ff. 40v, line 16-41r, line 3):
... وذلك ما أردنا
وهذه الأشكال الخمسة الأخيرة
من ثانية كتاب الأصول
لأقليدس وليكن هذا
آخر الكلام والحمد لله على الاتمام
والصلوة على نبيه محمد وآله
الكرام ...
