A commentary in verse on al-Shamāʾil al-Nabawīyah by Muḥammad ibn ʻĪsá al-Tirmidhī (d. 892). The title on fol. 1a and the labels on the inside of upper and lower covers attribute the work to "Aşik Paşa" -- Alaeddin Ali Aşik Paşa (1272-1333)?. However, available reference sources do not mention this work in relation to Alaeddin Ali (e.g. see EI, EB, Ṭāhir etc.) and the label on the inside of lower cover of the ms. also states that the work was composed in 1157 (1744-45), the date being acquired from the chronogram at the end of text (see explicit).
