This manuscript is signed by Ibrahim, known as Hamdi, pupil of the deceased 'Uthman Efendi. The scribe’s teacher was the famous Sayyid 'Uthman Efendi, known as Deli Osman, “mad Osman” who was married to the daughter of the calligrapher Hocapa Şalı Ibrahim Afif. As the scribe’s teacher is described as being deceased, our manuscript must postdate his death in AH 1210/1796-97 AD.
