Incipit: الحمد لله الذى جعل لاصول شرعه منارا اي منار وافاض على من اختاره انوار كشف الاسرار والصلوة على سيدنا محمد ... اما بعد فيقول فقير الله الغنى عبد الرحمن بن ابى بكر بن العينى غفر الله ذنوبه وستر عيوبه لما رايت المختصر المسمى بالمنار فى اصول الفقه للامام العلامة حافظ الملة والدين ابى البركات النسفى سقى الله ثراه واحسن فى الجنة مثواه كتابا لم ير مثله فى الاصول ... الحمد لله الذى هدانا اى دلّنا وقيل خلق الهداية فينا الى الصراط المستقيم

Explicit: واحتملت الرخصة ايضا كتناول مال الغير فانه حرام وحرمته يحتمل السقوط ب...؟ صاحبه بالتصرف واذا اكره حليه اكراها كاملا جاز له لان حرمة النفس فوق حرمة المال ... صار شهيدا لانه يكون باذلا نفسه لاعزاز الدين وامانته من الشرع تم
