This work presents an English-language translation of Risala-yi Mu'iniya, or the Mu'iniya Epistle. Risala-yi Mu'iniya is one of the earliest known works of Nasir al-Din Tusi (1201-1274), an intellectual luminary of the 13th century CE. The work is notable for the choice of Tusi's native Persian as the language of the text. In addition, Tusi organized his volume into a four-part structure, which went on to become a popular template for the Islamic astronomers who succeeded him.
