Manuscript description
Several notes and corrections by al-Maqrīzī who finished writing this fair copy (Mubayyaḍa) in Dhu al-Qiʿda 841AH. The first few sentences seem to be written by a different hand, but it might be of al-Maqrīzī as well! In a Collection of al-Maqrīzī's small works among several others (e.g. Mukhtalaf al-Qabāʾil wa-Muʾtalifihā of Ibn Jaʿfar Muḥammad b. Ḥabīb (and the copyist notes he did the vocalization which is not in the original work and he is sure that the vocalizations are correct); Tajrīd al-Tawḥīd; al-Kalām ʿalā qawlihi Ṣallā Allahu ʿAlayhi wa-Sallam Ṣalāt al-Layl Muthnnā Muthannā; Dafʿ al-Rayb fī Khiḍāb al-Shayb). Probably, all the texts are either full autographs of al-Maqrīzī, or corrected and authenticated by him. There is an invocation against worms and insects ''Yā Kabīkaj'' on f.1a. Several pages of the manuscript are harmed by book-worms.
