Two anonymous treatises on Islamic doctrines: 1. Arkān al-Islam (folios 1a-26b), on the five pillars of Islam: Confession of the faith, prayer, fasting, pilgrimage to Mecca, and giving alms. 2. Sullam al-tawfīq ilá maḥabbat Allāh ʻalá al-taḥqīq (folios 28b-35b) "Ladder of success to the true love of God", also called Fīmā yajibu taʻallumuhu wa-taʻlīmuhu wa-al-ʻamal bi-hi lil-khāṣṣ wa-al-ʻāmm "What must be learnt, taught and followed privately and publically". The manuscripts are written in two different hands with ample spaces between the lines to accommodate the interlinear translation into Javanese (in Arabic script), possibly to be used by students to practice translation from Arabic into Javanese. No reference could be found for either title. Name of copyists and place and date of copying not mentioned, probably from the 18th century.
