Ahmad al-Wallali’s Commentary on al-Sanusi’s Compendium of Logic: A Study and Edition of Lawami’ al-Nazar fi Tahqiq Ma'ani al-Mukhtasar

Ahmad b. Ya'qub al-Wallali

Lawami’ al-Nazar fi Tahqiq Ma'ani al-Mukhtasar is Ahmad b. Ya'qub al-Wallali’s (d. 1128/1716) commentary on al-Sanusi’s (d. 895/1490) compendium of logic, al-Mukhtasar. Al-Wallali was the first commentator on al-Sanusi’s compendium after the author’s autocommentary. In this publication, Ibrahim Safri offers a critical edition of this work, together with a study of the author’s life and oeuvre.

Safri also tries to show the indirect influence of Avicennism on logic in the Maghribi tradition in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. On the basis of his writings on logic and philosophical theology, al-Wallali was considered a master of rational sciences by his contemporaries.
