Notes
- The author is attributed to “Jaladak” from the villages of Khorasan, two farsangs from Mashhad al-Rida. One of the most famous chemists. He resided in Damascus for a period of time, and wrote one of his books there, “Al-Badr Al-Munir fi Knowledge of the Secrets of the Elixir” in the year 740 AH. He wrote another book during his stay in Cairo, “The Results of Thought in the Conditions of Stone,” in the year 742 AH. He has an authorship in the field of chemistry. The sources differed regarding his name and his father’s name: in (Kashf al-Zunun): “Izz al-Din Aydemir bin Ali bin Aydemir al-Jaldaki.” His book (Kanz al-Ikhtisas fi Ilm al-Khasas) was published in Pompeii in the year 1891 AD. His name was mentioned in it as “Ali bin Muhammad Aydimir al-Maliki,” and in the Khedive Index: “Izz ad-Din Ali bin Aydimir bin Ali al-Jaldaki.” The same is in “Brockelmann.” Sheikh Agha Buzurg (Al-Dhari’a 3: 69-70) elaborated on his name, and mentioned who was named by this name. In the year of his death there was a difference: he mentioned: Brockelmann and Agha. Buzurg said that he died in the year 862 AH, or before, or 750 AH. In (Khedivite Index) and (Shiite Notables): He died in the year 762 AH, and it was said that it was 750, 743 AH, or after 742 AH. Regardless of the differences in mentioning the year of his death, it is from the people of the eighth century of the Hijra - the beginning begins with what was mentioned in the Fatiha - a copy Illustrated with fragments of a handwritten copy in the library of the Iraqi Museum in Baghdad. It appears that this copy is a fragment of one of the parts of the book “The Great Proof,” which is in four parts, and from this “The Great Proof,” a modern copy in four volumes at the Institute of Islamic Research in Islamabad, Pakistan.
