Notes: This kitab, better known as Syarah Kaylani, is a commentary to the Taṣrīf al-‘Izzī of Abū Ibrāhīm ʿAbd al-Wahhāb ʿImād al-Dīn ibn Ibrāhīm al-Zanjānī in Arabic conjugation (taṣrīf). This work has been widely used for studying Arabic conjugation in an intermediate level. By this, the students are required to study the saraf kitab in a basic level, such as Matn al-Bināʾ wa-al-asās of ʿAbd Allāh al-Danqāzī. Some either translations or commentaries made in local languages show its popularity in the region, for example Terjemah Syarah al-Kaylānī of Ahmad Makki from Sukabumi and Tashīl al-Amānī fī tarjamat matn Kaylānī of Muhammad Abd Allah ibn Hasan. Both are written in Sundanese. Its Madurese translation is also available made by Aristu Rahman from Bangkalan entitled al-Jawhar al-ṣarfī fī tarjamat matn al-taṣrif lil-ʿIzzī aw matn Kaylānī.
