So his surname is Al-Ghazzî. His full name is Abu Salikh Shaikh al-Islam Mohammad Ibn Abdillah Ibn Ahmad Ibn Mohammad Ibn Ibrahim Ibn Mohammad Al-Umarî al-Ghazzî al-Timurtashi. Timurtashi who lived in Gaza which is within the baundries of Ottoman at that time although he had seen the periods of Qanuni and Selim the Second and Murad the Third and Mehmet the Third, he lived away government policy because of living in Gaza and being away from the Center. The faqih travelled to the many scientific centers for the purpose of education and he was educated in fiqh by Ibn Nujaym who was the most famous in this era. He codified the fatwa of Ibn Nujaym. He stayed in countries such as Gaza, Damascus and Egypt. In addition, he studied in a period with the Shaykh Emin ad-din Ibn Abd al-Al, Mohamad al-Mashriqi and Qazaskar Qınalızade Ali Efendi. As well as his ancestors and descendants, he is a member of a well-known scholar family. Timurtashi was called "Sahibu Tanwir al-absar" because of his work whose name is Tanwir al-absar. This work which was written by Timurtashi, gained a reputation among the well-known Hanafite scholars such as al-Haskafi and Ibn Abidin. Many comments and postscripts were written on this work. It was quoted as a reference by many jurists. The most important of these works is Haskafi's work which named Al-Durru'l-muhtar sharh tanwiru'l-absar and Ibn Abidin's work Raddu'l-muhtar 'ala al-Durril-muhtar. His work which is entitled Fatawa leads to Mufti. Al-Wusul to Kawaid al-Uusul which is another work deals with the connection between theory and practice in Islamic law. The booklet of Nukûd has reflected the age when the Ottomon Empire faces to economically unstable. The booklet includes the economic debates between scholars of the period in the 16th century. Morevover he wrote little booklets that he has given answers of questions by writting which he was asked about various topics such as the wakfa (waiting) of Arafat, the mash (to rob something by hand) on socks, provisions regarding the church, entering to the baths, qıraah (reciting) behind the imam, provisions on Durzis and Rafızis. Some of his works that mentioned in sources did not reach our time. There is no exact information about the date of Timurtashi's death. Although a date has been given by author himself since the date of writing Tukhfetu al-aqran and its commentary Mevahibu'r-rahman, we have no definite data. That's why we can say: He was alive in the date 1007/1599. Some of the major works which are attributed to Timurtashi within the literature of bibliography and which have already been printed are as follows: Minahu'l-Gaffar Sharh Tanwiri'l-absar, Mu'inu'l-mufti 'ala jawabi'l-mustafti, Fatawa't-Timurtashi, Mus'ifetu'l-hukkam 'ale'l-ahkam, al-Fatawa'z-zayniya, I'anatu'l-haqir sharh Zad al-faqir, Sharh muhtasar al-Manar, el-Wusul to kawaidi'l-usul, Feydu'l-mustafid fî masa't-tafwid.
