Bahā' al-Dīn al-`Āmilī = Shaykh Bahā'ī
The son of Shaykh Ḥusayn ibn `Abd al-Ṣamad al-`Āmilī (919-984 AH = 1512-1576 CE) who was appointed Shaykh al-Islam at the then Safavid capital Qazvin by Shah Ṭahmasb (930-984 AH =1524-1576 CE). He was born near Baalbek on the 27th Dhu'l-Ḥijja 953 AH = 18th February 1547 CE and died Isfahan 12th Shawwāl 1030 AH = 29th August 1621 CE. A polymathic and widely travelled individual Shaykh Bahā'ī is viewed by some as the Islamic Mujaddid ("Renewer") of the 11th/17th century. The elder Majlisi, Muhammad Taqi Majlisi, described him as follows in his al-Rawdat (22:1),"[He is] al-Shaykh al-A`ẓam ("the Supreme Shaykh"), al-Wālid al-Mu`azzam ("the Venerated Father"), Imam al-`Allāmah ("the Imam of the Most Erudite"), Malik al-Fuḍalā' wa'l-Udabā' wa'l-Muḥaddithīn ("Commander of the Most Eminent Ones, the Cultured Persons and the Masters of Tradition"), Bahā' al-millat wa'l-Ḥaqq wa'l-Dīn ("the Splendor of the Religious Community and of the Real One [God] and of Religion")" (cited introduction to the Miftah al-Falah [1422/2001 ed], 4). Shaykh Baha'i was an accomplished theologian, philosopher, mathematician, Sufi inclined mystic, architect, grammarian and more besides. Bahā' al-Dīn al-`Āmilī was the one-time supremely powerful Shaykh al-Islām under Shāh `Abbās I (r. 996/1588- 1038/1629) at his then Safavid capital Isfahan. See further Brockelmann, GAL II: 414-15; Supp. I:76, 741; Supp. II: 595-97. ..

al-'Āmilī, Bahā' al-Dīn Muhammad, Shaykh Bahā’ī (d. 1031/1622) wrote around 90-100 works in Persian and Arabic.
In view of its being almost the 400th anniversary (1030 AH + 400 = 1430 AH = 2008-9 CE) of Bahā' al-Dīn al-'Āmilī's death, a project is currently under way by the Iranian Markiz-i Iḥyā'-i Āthār-i Islamī ("Islamic Manuscript Revival Centre") to publish a compendium of thirty volumes of Shaykh Baha'i's Arabic and Persian works (Majmu`a-yi Āthār-i Shaykh Bahā'ī), along with a few select volumes of scholarship about him and his writings (see Guzaresh-i Mirās, Vol. 1 No. 1, Mehr 1385, p. 17).
International holdings of Mss. or collections of the writings of al-'Āmilī, Shaykh Baha'i.
Important mss. of Persian and Arabic writings of Shaykh Baha'i can be found in numerous international locations; within Iran, Iraq, India and elsewhere in the Middle East and beyond. See for example, the many mss. in the UCLA Caro Minasian Collection of Persian and Arabic mss - unfortunately not yet fully cataloged or digitized. Such details cannot possibly all be listed here.

al-Kashkūl. 2 vols. ed., Tāhir Aḥmad. al-Zāwī., Cairo: Dār Iḥyāʼ al-Kutub al-ʻArabiyya, 1380/1961 (3, xi, 511; 536 pp.). (= Bosworth C) Contains the Commentary of Shaykh Ahmad al-Manīnī but omits his biography as in the 1288/1871 Lithograph (see above). Boswoth writes of this Cairo edition "According to al-Zāwī's Preface to his text (I, pp. hā'-tā'), it is based on a comparison of the Bulaq text (for the first three mujalladāt) with two Dar al-Kutub manuscripts: (ï) Adab 143, completed in 1060/1650, i.e. within a generation of Bahâ' al-Din's death, containing the Persian subject-matter, carefully-written and apparently accurate; and (2) 2843, of unspecified date, full of errors and consulted by al-Zāwī only occasionally. He further states (I, pp. ṭā'-kāf) that the task of producing anything like a reasonably accurate text of the Kashkūl is made very difficult by the state of the manuscripts: total absence of any subject-headings or subdivisions beyond the bare division into mujalladāt, confused and varying arrangement of the actual subject-matter and many lacunae. His own limited achievement is nonetheless a meritorious one, for it is patent that a collation of all the extant manuscripts, lithographs and prints of the Kashkūl would be a gargantuan undertaking, given the great length of the anthology, and it must be conceded that there are more pressing tasks in Islamic scholarship awaiting the attention of critical editors... A very small number of passages in the first three mujalladāt, e.g. those concerned with Arabic vernacular poetry ... figure in al-Zāwī's edition only and not in the Bulaq text..." (Bosworth, 1989:25-6).

Note from a recent Musical Bibliography...
AL-al-Kashkul. The Beggar's Bowl
"This anthology containing a variety of subjects is the best known of `Amilī's works. It includes a short section on music in which the author defines the science of music and the note, mentions the seventeen fundamental notes and the eighty-four cycles, briefly discusses the lawfulness of music from the religious point of view, declaring that the study of music as a science is permitted but its practice is forbidden; gives a definition of music and its principles which is compiled from al-Fārābī's Ihsā' al-`ulūm (see 055), and ends with a quotation from b. ai- Akfānī's al-irshād (see 088), criticising the theory of the music of the spheres. Except for the phrase on the lawfulness of music this passage constitutes a summary of al-irshād, which in itself was mainly compiled from al-Fārābī's al-ihsā՝." (Add ref.).

Khulāṣat fi `ilm al-ḥisāb wal-jabr wa'l-muqābala [= Risāla al-Bahā'iyya] ("Summa of Arithmetic") or ("Quintessence of Calculation") or Khulāṣat fi `ilm al-ḥisāb [al-Bahā'iya] . A mathematical treatise in ten main sections apparently influenced by the more substantial work of Ghīyāth al-Din Jamshīd ibn Mas`ud al-Kashānī or al-Kāshī ( d. Samarkand 14XX), the Miftāḥ al-ḥisāb ("Key to Mathmatical Calculation"). The Khulāṣat fi `ilm al-ḥisāb was frequently copied, commented upon and published throughout the 19th century.

"The study concludes the following: First, Quintessence of Calculation was a highly influential mathematics textbook in Central Asia between the 17th century and the beginning of the 20th century. Its influence was partly due to the soundness of its mathematical algorithms resulting from Sheikh Bahai's mastery of mathematics, especially the one enhanced by al-Kashi, a celebrated mathematician in the 15th century. The study provides evidence that Sheikh Bahai studied al-Kashi's work. By utilizing these algorithms, Sheikh Bahai made the highly practical aspects of seven centuries of Islamic-culture mathematical achievements available to the region at large. Furthermore, the study concludes that the remarkable influence of Quintessence of Calculation can be attributed to the specific approaches of Sheikh Bahai's presentations of mathematical concepts and algorithms. His approaches are identified as a result of detailed analytical comparison between this book and a major book of al-Kashi. The study also provides a partial answer to the creativity of Sheikh Bahai that enabled him to author several educational books, including Quintessence of Calculation, which were highly influential for several centuries. Subsequently, the study identifies Sheikh Bahai's method of discovery, which was also practiced by Avicenna (ibn Sina), a distinguished mathematician and scientist in the 11th century; this method is introduced and examined through a contemporary hypothesis presented by Elahi. As a result of a detailed analysis of the text, the study presents several of its approaches which may be beneficial to modern elementary and secondary mathematics education..."
