Incipit: سبحان من تقدست سبحات جماله عن سمت الحدوث والزوال ... وبعد فانّ انفع المطالب حالا ومآلا ... [2ب] ... قال بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم به نستعين فاقول ضمن المص خطبة كتابه الاشارة الى مقاصد علم الكلام
Explicit: قال المصنف وليكن هذا آخر الكلام ... انه هو الغفور الرحيم وانا اقول هذا ما تيسر لنا بعون الله وحسن توفيقه من كشف مشكلاته وتوضيح معضلاته وتحرير مسائله وتقرير دلايله ... وجعله ذخيرا لنا يوم الدين انه خير موفق ومعين
