Sadreddin Konevi has pioneered a new flow in the Sufism; at the same time he brought a vision to Sufism in terms of philosophy, thematic, concept and methodology. He dealt the Sufism in the axis of the philosophy and the theoretical science of the Islamic thought. The method of Konevi, who followed an interdisciplinary method in his studies, has been one of the considerable aspects in the development of the Sufism history. Some registers in the tahrir defters, one of the significant documents of the Ottoman Archives, has the quality that will enlighten Konevi’s works, methodology and sources he inspired. Konevi’s wakfs were registered in details in the 15th and 16th century tahrirs of the Karaman Province. Among these registers, Konevi’s library and books found are remarkable. These books reflect the intellectual environment, where Konevi was educated, the methodologies, thoughts, ecoles, and the scholars that he was influenced, and the mistical tendencies of the era concerned. In his library, there are books of many scholars such as ?bni Sina, ?bni Rü?d, ?bni Arabî, Fahreddin Razî as well as those written by himself. These works have a quality of milestones of the thought and spiritual world of a prominent pioneer in the history of Sufism.
