He later studied in Iran and became Shaykh al-Islam (religious chief of the Iranian muslims) under the Safavid ruler Shah 'Abbas I (r.1587-1629) in Isfahan. He was also a mathematician, astronomer and philosopher.

This manuscript is a majmu'a, or compilation. As well as the main work, mentioned above, it also includes a commentary by al-Majisti (Almagest) on the circle (Al-da'irah), a treatise on the angle (Al-zawiyah), and a treatise entitled Dhail al-usul by Tusi. This is probably Tusi's treatise entitled Tahrir kitab al-makhrutat li Abuluniyus, or 'Exposition of the Book of "Conic Sections" of Apollonius' (B.A. Rosenfeld and E. Ihsanoglu, op.cit., 2003, pp.211-19, no.606, M11).
