Bursevî followed the foot steps of Ibn-i Arabî and shaped his ideas according to him. He wrote his works on the idea of `Vahdet-i Vücûd` (solitariness) In his works, he generally used Turkish language. Newertheless, he also used Arabic and Persian word and phrases very often. His works one rather difficult to undertstand as he used a very hard and heavy language. He had more than a hundred works. Among these works, there is a book named `Kitâbü 'l-Envâr` in which he had explained many subjects of Islamic mysticism. (Envâr means lights) Anyuray, the name of the book cames from there.
