Ḥadā’iq al-Azhār fi sharḥ Mashāriq al-̣Anwār (Wajīh al-Dīn ‘Umar b. ‘Abd al-Muḥsin al-Arzinjānī, active ‏14th century)

Author

Wajīh al-Dīn ‘Umar b. ‘Abd al-Muḥsin al-Arzinjānī, active ‏14th century

وجيه الدين بن عمر بن عبد المحسن الارزنجاني

Biographical notes

In his works the author simply refers to himself as ‘Umar b. ‘Abd al-Muḥsin al-Arzinjānī; the full form of his name is recorded in the ijaza on fol. 156a of Fatih 1159: “ملك العلماء المحققين قدوة المفسرين جامع انواع العلوم ناشر فنون الفضايل وجيه الحق والملة والدين ناصر الاسلام و معين المسلمين عمر بن عبد المحسن الارزنجاني”. Nothing is known of this author other than what can be gleaned from his works. It appears certain that he was a resident of Erzincan, as his nisba suggests, for that is where an autograph ms was copied (Carullah 1623). His works suggest he was a Hanafi faqih and a Sufi.
