Manuscript description
Extensive use of the margins: commentary notes, corrections, and announcements of names and topics discussed in the main text. Folios f. 120b-121a are left blank. No title page. The title is found in the colophon of the script (on f.277a) Khaṭṭab b. ʿUmar b. (Muhanna?) al-ʿAjlūnī al-Qarāfī. The copyist also notes that he copied this manuscript from the author's drafts (karārīs) and apologizes because the author's handwriting is hard to read (f.287a). The colophon is followed by a note about the copyist from al-Suyūṭī’s book Naẓm –al-ʿUqyān which says that he is a student of the author who worked very hard till he exceeded his peers and became a Muftī later on. Reading note of: ʿAbd al-Barr b. ʿAbd al-Qādir al-ʿAwfī in (f. 287b);
