Manuscript description
Minor notes and corrections in the margins. Manuscript condition: not quite firm in the lid, damaged by worm, unclean (especially on the edges) yet still legible. The original title says that the work is for al-Suyūṭī, however, someone scratched his name and wrote al-Qalqashandī's name instead. There is a note on [f. 181] states that the author finished writing this work in 819 AH (which suggests that it is written by al-Qalqashandī).
