Manuscript description
Not extensive use of the margins: few commentary notes and corrections. The topics discussed in the main text are highlighted in the margins. Several notes are no longer readable because the papers are trimmed. There are several ownership statements and reading notes written on the first (unnumbered) folio which most probably is not a part from the original manuscript as there is a note on it says that this a good collection of works (majmūʿ laṭīf): Reading note of Jamāl al-Dīn al-Qādirī, reading note of Aḥmad al-Jawaharī, ownership note of Muḥammad b. al-Ḥāj Walī al-Dīn al-Muwaqqiʿ, ownership note of Muḥammad b. Muḥammad al-Ḥalabī? Al-Harīrī?. The folio f.1a has: a poetry of Muḥammad Fatḥallah b. Maḥmūd al-Bīlūnī al-Ḥalabī which he wrote down himself on the manuscript. The first flyleaf has the date: 22 Jan. 1876 written on it in French.
