Manuscript description
Few commentary notes in the margins. f.29a has a note states that this was found in (or copied from) al-Ḥanbalī’s history (i.e. naql/nuqil min tarīkh al-Ḥanbalī). The book starts from f.24a while the first pages are from Ibn Khillikān's history of Egypt. The folios f.1a has an ornate frontispiece which contains the title of Ibn Taghribirdi's work on a central medallion, and the title of Ibn Khillikān's work added by a different hand. The book ends with the Sultanate of al-Ẓāhir Jaqmaq (842 Hijri). Ibn Taghribirdi mentions that the biography of that Sultan can be found in his big history which he wrote as a continuation of al-Maqrizi's work (i.e. Ḥawādith Al-Duhūr fī Madā al-Ayyām wa-l-Shuhūr ). The last folios of the manuscript are written by a different person and they contain the continuation of the history of the Mamluk sultans until the Ottoman conquest. Third handwriting continued the narratives until 932 Hijri (1525-1526 AD). Reading note of Muḥammad b. Aḥmad Amīr Ḥāj (who is known as) Ibn Salmān al-Ḥanafī. The first flyleaf has the date: 12 June 1873 written in Latin.
