Sometimes, the sentences in the main text are completed in the margins. Reading notes of: Muḥammad b. ʿUmar? (f.175a); ʿUmar al-Ḥāj Muḥammad (f.175a). The first and last folios contain several writings which look quite random (e.g. Poetry (Arabic and Ottoman); a piece of information about that the sky has rained stones and snakes in the month of Ṣafar in Qarmān and Āmid (each stone weighed an Egyptian “raṭl”); A fatwā by (Sirāj al-Dīn al-Balqīnī?) about employing dhimmis in the government and the pact of Umar).
