Summary/Abstract: Abdullah effendi Bošnjak ‘Abdi’ bin Muhammad al-Bosnawi (d.1054/1644), who was a disciple and shaykh of the Bayrami-Malami tariqa, was one among the many fine comentators on Ibn ‘Arabi’s Fusus al-hikam. His Commentary on Ibn ‘Arabi’s Fusus al-hikam he has originally composed in Ottoman Turkish, then hi has rendered an enlarged edition, with explanations, into Arabic. Commenting on al-Bosnawi’s Commentary, the polymath Haji Halifa says that it is “mingled with the text and is a very good commentary, perhaps the best of all.”
