- Description
- Turkish catechism written by Abdurrahman b. Yûsuf Aksarâyî, in 1543; in translating the catechism into Turkish, he made additions using other sources, so it's a mix of a translation and a new work; a text about belief, worship, and morality; book intended for Hanafis, but it references the sources of other sects too
