Notes
Molla Fenârî's work in which he explains the concepts of Sufism such as Muhammediye and determination. The only known copy of the work, whose real name is Mecelletü'n Müştemiletü'n alâ Usûli'n Teştehiru min Ehli't Tasavvufo, is registered in Istanbul Millet Library Ali Emiri Collection 34 Ae Persian 1028/18. The work is between sheets 164a-166b and is written in Arabic ta'lik calligraphy in 19 lines. The work is written in black ink, and the concepts that need attention are crossed out with red ink. Although Mecelle min-Ehli't-Tasavvuf is attributed to Molla Fenârî, there is no information about the mentioned work in the sources. However, it can be thought that it may belong to Fenârî in terms of coming immediately after Fenârî's other two successive treatises (Tahkîku Hakâ'iki'l-Eşyâve Risâle-i Ucâle) in the magazine in which the work is found, and resembling his other works in terms of style and topics covered (Gömbeyaz 2009: 500). The author is mentioned in the 164b section of the work. He mentioned the names of Allah and briefly touched upon life after death, especially life in the grave. In the last part of the mentioned leaf, it is mentioned how important knowledge is and information about prophecy is given. In the 165a leaf of the work, absolute reality is mentioned. This part also constitutes the main part of the work. The author further detailed the facts in the previous section on page 165b of the work. Here he talked about the "real levels" and first divided them into four: spirit, unseen, testimony and meaning, and evaluated the fifth as an element that covers all of them. In page 166a, the concept of "Levh-i Mahfûz" is mentioned in detail. In page 166b, a general evaluation of the element mentioned in the work is made and it is a summary. There are passages from Ibn Arabi in the margins of the work. No study has been done on the work. For the author's biography, see. "Fenârî, Mollâ Fenârî, Şemseddîn Muhammed b. Hamza, Şemseddîn Muhammed Efendi".Turkish Literature Names Dictionary.
