Abstract:
Compendium of Nihāyat al-maṭlab (manual of Shafiʻi law) of ʻAbd al-Malik al-Juwaynī. Volume II, from the Kitāb al-buyūʻ through the Kitāb al-shufʻah. and Preceded by 2 leaves of notes.
Description:
Badly water-stained, faded, and corroded in part., Brockelmann omits "Abī" in the author's name; cf. the autograph of vol. I, Bankipore catalog, XIX, 2, no. 1822, where also is found the spelling "min" (not "fi") in the title., Loose in Islamic binding, paper covered, with flap., Old (13th century?) naskhī, for the most part entirely unpointed., and The Bankipore manuscript has 33 lines per page, and the measurements are somewhat smaller than this manuscript, so presumably this is not a holograph.
