Manuscript description
Almost clean Margins which contain few correction notes, and announcements of the topics discussed in the main text. Sometimes, the sentences in the main text are completed in the margins. Folding of the sheets: Folio. Catch-title is written on the edges of the work. The mistara is clear all over the manuscript. There is a wrong title on an added paper at the start of the manuscript which says that it is volume 1 (and someone corrected it by a pencil). The folio f.1a has the title which says that this manuscript is written by the author (while this is not true). The copyist also has copied the date in which the author finished writing the book in 825 AH (f.200b).
