Manuscript description
The folios f.2b-f.3b contain a description of the topics of the second volume of al-Khiṭaṭ which seems like a reproduction of an index written by al-Maqrīzī (as it says it the end ''see my other works: Ittiʿāẓ al-Ḥunafāʾ bi-Akhbār al-Aʾimmah al-Fāṭimīyīn al-Khulafāʾ, ʿIqd al-Jawāhir al-Asfāṭ fī Akhbār Madīnat al-Fusṭāṭ, and al-Sulūk li-Maʿrifat Duwal al-Mulūk). Several commentary notes and correction notes in the margins (also sometimes the topics in the main text are highlighted). Completion of the main text in the margins. The first folio has the date: 23 January 1873 written in Latin.
