Manuscript description
Manuscript status: in good condition. There is a note by the copyist which says that in the original work the number of the entries of male shaykhs is 437, and the number of entries of female ''shaykhs'' is 67. However, the author's son dropped 120 entries of male Shaykhs and 17 entries of female Shaykhs which the copyist added in a separate book (i.e. Spr. 255) because they contain information on (what he deemed as) important scholars (f.1, f.2). Reading note of Muḥammad Abū Jaʿfar b. Muḥammad b. ʿAlī al-Ḥanafī.
