Davani is considered to have been one of the leading scholars in late 15th-century Iran. The modern historian John E. Woods calls him the "ideological mainstay of the Aq Qoyunlu Empire in Uzun Hasan's time." Several prominent figures studied under Davani, such as Qadi Husayn Maybudi (died 1504); "qadi" of Yazd; Jamal al-Din Hosayn Mohammad Astarabadi (died 1525), "sadr" under Ismail I's son and successor shah Tahmasp I (); and Qadi Jahan Qazvini, vizier under Tahmasp I.
