He spent the latter part of his life in Bursa. He has been confused with his contemporary, Maḥmūd b. Muḥammed Dilşad Şükrullâh Şirvānī, author Murādnāme and Tarīḫ-i İbn Kesīr Tercümesi, and has been dubiously attributed with these following works: Kemāliyye, Bāhnāme Tercümesi and Harīdetü’l-Acā’ib ve Cerīdetü’l-Garā’ib Tercümesi.
