Sayyid 'Ali Pasha, who translated 'Ali Qushji's text into Turkish was the head of the Imperial School of Engineering. He completed the translation in 1824, the year our copy was printed. The colophon states that the book was printed with the knowledge of Ibrahim Saib, the head of the Official Printing Press (Dar al-Tiba'a al-'Amira).
