- Description:
- Untitled medical text in nestaʻlīq script. 463 folios, 26x16 cm., 9 lines per page. Written surface measures 8.5x15 cm. Main text in Arabic, some notes in Persian. The manuscript is difficult to date since the colophon is missing. Old read leather binding with some pieces replaced at some time in the past and colored to match. Author unknown. The introduction states that the treatise consists of four chapters: (1) On the basic principles of classification of medical sciences; (2) On medication and nutrition; (3) On diseases that infect certain body parts; and (4) On diseases that infect other body parts. A printed note, probably clipped from an old catalog, is mounted on the last blank page states: "A very fine and unpublished Persian [sic] manuscript on medicine in red leather binding of 17th century." It is certainly in nice condition, but we cannot vouch for "unpublished" or "17th century.", "Baʻda ḥamd Allāh ʻazza wa-jall ... fa-qad rattabtu hādhā al-kitāb ʻalá arbaʻat funūn ...", Manuscript., Arabic., and Digital version available;

- Abstract:
- Books four and five of "al-Qānūn fī al-ṭibb" (Canon of medicine), a comprehensive work on Arabic medicine, by Ibn Sīnā (Avicenna, 980-1037) who was born near Bukhara (in present-day Uzbekistan). Avicenna was the most famous and influential scholar, scientist, and philosopher of the medieval world. He was foremost a physician, but was also an astronomer, chemist, geologist, psychologist, philosopher, logician, mathematician, physicist, and poet. His al-Qānūn fī al-ṭibb became the authoritative reference on medicine in the Middle Ages, not only in the Islamic world, but, in its Latin translations, in Europe as well. The present manuscript consists of book four (folios 1b-156b) and book five (folios 157a-211a) of a five volume set. Book five is called "al-Aqrābādhīn" (pharmacology, materia medica). Name of copyist and place and date of copying not mentioned, probably from the 19th century.
