- Abstract:
- A collection of two treatises: 1. Kashf al-asrār ʻan ḥikam al-ṭuyūr wa-al-azhār "Unveiling of secrets on the sagacity of birds and flowers" (folios 1a-47a), a treatise on sufism, in the form of "maqāmah" genre, by ʻIzz al-Dīn ʻAbd al-Salām ibn Ghānim al-Maqdisī (died 1279? in Cairo), a ṣūfī author, preacher and poet. Copied in the middle of Jumādá al-ākhir (31 March, 1657). Name of copyist and place of copying not mentioned. 2. Naẓm "Muthallath Quṭrub" (folios 47b-52b), by Ibrāhīm ibn Sulaymān al-Azʹharī al-Ḥanafī, active 1688, a little known author (See Brockelmann: G II, 215; Suppl. I, 161: "al-Manẓūmah al-sannīyah fī bayān al-asmāʼ al-lughawīyah" [Illustrious poem presenting the linguistic nouns]). The treatise is a versification of "al-Muthallath" of Quṭrub (Muḥammad ibn al-Mustanīr, died 821 or 822, a well-known grammarian and philologist, from Baṣrah, Iraq), enumerating the trilateral homonyms in Arabic which have different meanings according to the three Arabic vowels (fatḥah, ḍammah, kasrah). Quṭrub was the first author to write on the "Muthallath" genre. The author added to the materials of "Muthallāth Quṭrub" words which he selected from extensive dictionaries, such as "Ṣiḥāḥ al-Jawharī". Copied by Ḥusayn ibn Munlā Yūsuf al-Naqshabandī (?). Place and date of copying not mentioned
