This work is the Turkish version by Mustafa Mehmed el-Vânî (died 1592) of the medieval Arab dictionary made by Ismācīl ibn Ḥammād al-Ğawharī (died ca. 1003) and known as Mucğam al-Ṣiḥāḥ. It was published in two volumes, the first of which includes the Sultan’s decree permitting the working of the press, this time signed by cOsmân III (1754-1757).
The Oriental Collection preserves the second edition of the work,
published in 1756 [MTAK shelfmark:
