    Summary note
    Collection of two treatises on uṣūl al-dīn. The first is entitled Mukhtaṣar uṣūl al-dīn in the ms. and is identical with al-Masāʼil al-khamsūn fī uṣūl al-dīn. The second, Ithbāt al-wājib, is dedicated to Ḥasan Pāshā (see fol. 22a), and is identical with Risālah fī Mabdaʼ al-awwal wa-ṣifātih (Kash al-ẓunūn. Ed. Fluegel, III, 437). Both titles appear in the ms.
