A few lines are devoted to this author and his only work, the Javāhiru'l-akhbār, in 'Othmānli Mü'ellifleri (i, p. 145) where his full name appears as Qāsim b. Shaikh İlyās b. İdrīs el-Antākī. He is stated to have been one of the descendants of ‘Abdu’l-Qādir Gīlānī, to have settled at İnegöl and to have died in 941/1534–5. Bursah Meḥxmed Ṭāhir saw at İnegöl the metrical composition (manẓūme) written in 901/1496–7 by Qāsim Efendi entitled Javāhiru'l-akhbār. This, he says, is divided into thirty-two bāb and is an ethical and Ṣūfī work. The note on Qāsim concludes with some mention of the Shaikhs who succeeded him but the dervish order to which they belonged is not stated.
