- Abstract
This paper presents Hadji Hasan Hilmi Effendi's biography along with a critical edition (taḥqīq), translation and analysis of his treatise, Rawḍat al-Suadâ. There is no information about his life except an autobiography which he recorded with his own handwriting. Therefore, the information about his life is limited to that document attached to this article. The abovementioned treatise deals with three important issues, namely Primordial Covenant (Bazm Alast), determination of those to enter Heaven and those to enter Hell, and Lawḥ Maḥfūẓ. In addition to giving a summary of the opinions of various groups on these issues, the treatise also offers the author's own opinion. The views of the author on the issues in question may be summarized as follows: With its symbolic narrative, the verses about Bazm Alast do not give an account of an actual event. Only sane individuals who attained puberty can be subject to the punishment in hell. It is not possible to change Lawḥ Maḥfūẓ. He expresses the opinions of Kalam scholars, Ahl al-Hadith (the people of Hadith) and ṣūfīs on the said issues. Although the author prefers theological opinions, he introduces the other two opinions as worth preferring. The analysis of the treatise aims to reveal how the author thinks. Thus, the study will determine the principles to which the author adheres in evaluating the divine decrees and in reasoning.
