Life and register readings

The life of MUHAMMET ŞAKİR EFENDİ began in Kirkuk (Kerkük) in 1882/83 (AH 1300); the father's occupation was "vergi kâtibi". MUHAMMET ŞAKİR studied at a school for young children (Sıbyan Mektebi).

At about 25, in 1908/09, MUHAMMET ŞAKİR began work, on a first salary of 200 kuruş. The annual lists begin in 1908/09, with MUHAMMET ŞAKİR as mülazım (muhasebe kalemi) (Görevin sona ermesi) in Mosul (Musul). Alongside, the lists for 1908/09 give a second post, in a post with no place named as müfredat kâtibi. The last post was in Erbil in 1910/11.

The salary went from 200 kuruş a month in 1908/09 to 250 in 1910/11, the peak, in Erbil, when 13 per cent of paid officials earned less. In all, three years of salary come to 7,800 kuruş, 43 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned in those years. The last annual entry is for 1910/11.
