A major scholar of his age and a caliph of the Erdebîliyye order, his real name Şeyh Alâaddin Efendi; he died in Isparta in 930 AH. Renowned for his authority in ferâiz (inheritance law), scholars in doubt over inheritance questions were said to visit his tomb. He is buried in the Halifesultan quarter named after him, in a domed, iron-railed tomb. (Sources: Ölmez & Gökmen, bilig 35/2005; Isparta Provincial Directorate)
