%X There are some aspects of existence that cannot be known with senses and can only be explained by word. These can be understood by the various examples selected from the sensory areas. One of the various metaphors used for this purpose is the ¡°noqta/point¡± metaphor. The noqta simile can present very convenient possibilities when describing the ideo of existence through unity. A book named Noqta al-Bayan which could be dated to XV or XVI. centuries, contains important information in this respect. The fact that this book is falsely attributed to Muhammed N£¿r al-Arabi, who lived in 19th century is one of the factors led us to study on this treatise. This study will examine the manuscripts of this work in libraries of Turkey, and discuss the information on author and work. Book, work gives an impression that it is an eclectic text in crossroad of philosophy, kalam and tasavvuf
