Descripción
Sumario:Mohammed Amin Shirwani was a writer specialized in rational sciences and religious sciences. He wrote a book called al-Fawaid al-Haqaniyya in Arabic concerning definitions of sciences and their issues in seventeenth century. A manuscript strongly predicted to be author’s copy was registered in the library. While investigating different versions of al Fawaid al Haqaniyya we found a lost work called Nabzatun Min al-Haqaiq Zubdatun Min al-Daqaiq which is author’s copy. Shirwani’s wrote al-Fawaid al-Haqaniyya for students to benefit and for his friends to be souvenirs, and presented it to ottoman Sultan I Ahmed. Shirwani had planned a project concerning sciences in Shirwan but he was obligated to migrate due to the Safavids to conquer Shirwan. After settling İstanbul he completed his project in there. He mentioned fifty-three sciences in it. He mentioned definitions of sciences, analysis of knowledge and classification of sciences in introduction. In the first (heart) chapter, he studied ten of religious sciences. In the second (right) chapter, he studied twelve of Arabic literary/sciences. In the third (left) chapter, he studied thirty-one of rational or philosophical sciences. In the last (foot) chapter, he studied qualifications of kings need to acquire. Important issues and their justifications in every science were discussed in that book. al-Fawaidu'l-Haqaniyya was considered to be useful for researchers on the field of theology, Arabic literature, and history of Islamic thought and sciences.
