The article examines source-critical approaches to the manuscript and commentary tradition of Hafiz al-Din al-Nasafi’s Kanz al-Daqa’iq. The study aims to develop criteria for describing copies, separating the base text from commentaries and glosses, and assessing how textual variants affect the meaning of fiqh rules. The author’s dissertation materials, critical and commentary editions and catalogue records from Uzbekistan and Tatarstan were analysed using historical source-critical, comparative textual and typological methods. It argues that manuscripts, lithographs, lithographs with handwritten annotations, commentary editions and joint editions of commentary and gloss must be described as distinct objects, and proposes a typology of them. It shows that the date recorded for one lithographed copy does not match the known period of activity of the New Bukhara press. The role of Tabyin al-Haqa’iq and al-Bahr al-Ra’iq in explaining terse formulations and establishing readings is examined. Using the qarya/qurba variant and the omission of the delivery-place condition in the chapter on salam, the article shows that a textual difference can change the content of a legal rule. A six-stage research procedure, from identifying a copy to a justified translation, is proposed; the findings can improve collection catalogues and support translating the work into Uzbek.
