This work is of frequent occurrence. The text of it appears to vary much in different MSS. Several titles are also given to it. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kashf_al-Zunun">Ḥ.

Then follows an account of the events which happened after his ascension. It ends abruptly on fol. 281, where there is a lacuna.

It was after composing his المهمّات فى شرح الرافعى و الروضة , <em>i.e</em>. a commentary on the two standard works on the Shâf’ite Law , that he undertook his present task.
