Şerafeddin Mağmumi

The two articles on him are short stubs resting on the same references, and both give his birth at Istanbul in 1860 and his death in 1931; the Biyografya profile behind them, drawn from İhsan Işık's encyclopedia of Turkish authors, adds that he settled in Cairo and died there, and the edition of his own memoir records that he served as a physician to King Farouk of Egypt. He fled the Hamidian regime to Paris, like other Unionist exiles of his circle, before making Cairo his home. ^{1 2}

A second tradition gives different years: the BnF authority record, carried by Wikidata with day precision, records his birth on 9 November 1869 and his death on 20 July 1927, at the same two places, Istanbul and Cairo. The museum follows the articles' 1860–1931 and records both dates as debated, with the alternative preserved in the data record. ³

His writings are travel and observation: memoirs of journeys in Anatolia in 1898–99, a Syrian journey of 1896, travels in Europe, and a guide to Paris, alongside research works on plague and on Ramadan, collected studies, poems and translations that the articles list. His memoir was republished in Cahit Kayra's edition as The Memoirs of an Ottoman Doctor. ^{1 2}

No source records any affiliation for him. The English and Turkish articles say nothing of a religion or a school in text or infobox, and Wikidata carries no religion value for his item, so this record states none. ^{1 2 3}
