Hosam al-Din Ali Bitlisi Nurbakhshi (died 1494/95) was a Kurdish Sufi author.
He was the father of the noted historian Idris Bitlisi.
[1] According to Tahsin Yazici / Encyclopædia Iranica, nothing is known about Hosam al-Din's early life; however, he adds that his works bear evidence to the fact that he was well educated and was well versed in both Persian and Arabic.
[1] Either prior to completing his education, or after that, Hosam al-Din became a member of the Sufi Nurbakhshi order.
[1] Yazici considers it likely that Hosam al-Din became a follower and in turn the eventual successor of the so-called "actual" founder of the order; Mohammad Nurbakhsh (died 1465).
