Manuscript description
The manuscript is in a bad condition, therefore we checked the digital copy. Written on an already used folios and you would find old titles written vertically and horizontally on the folios next to the book's main text. Starts with the title al-Juzʾ al-Thānī min al-Mawāʿiẓ followed by several inconsistent folios (which contain an index), then the book starts with Dhikr al-Qāhira al-Muʿizziya on f.9a ( and the books gets more consistent afterwards). Several attached papers to it. Writing is inconsistent as the book was clearly meant for personal use. Extensive use of the margins contain: Several and consistent commentary notes which relate to the commenter’s own time, and announcements of the topics discussed in the main text. Sometimes, the sentences in the main text are completed in the margins.
