Abstract:
Manuscript on medicine and pharmacology by Abū Saʻīd ibn Ibrāhīm al-Mutaṭabbib al-Maghribī, a little known physician and pharmacologist who seems to have lived in the 12th century. The name of the author is given as "Abū Saʻīd ibn Ibrāhīm al-Maghribī" in one of his medical/pharmacological manuscript works: "Kitāb fatʹḥ al-tadāwī min jamīʻ al-amrāḍ wa-al-shakāwī fī mufradāt al-ʻaqāqīr, [17--?]" which he dedicated to the Amīr Shams al-Dīn Abū ʻAbd Allāh Muḥammad Dhū al-Qarnayn ibn ʻAyn al-Dawlah, the son of Amīr Ghāzī who seems to be the Danishmendid ruler Dhū al-Qarnayn, d. 557 H/1162 CE (OCLC 244629229). In the printed editions with slightly different titles: "Taqwīm al-adwīyah al-mufradah, aw, al-Munjiḥ fī al-tadāwī min jamīʻ al-amrāḍ wa-al-shakāwī" as Ibrāhīm ibn Abī Saʻīd al-ʻAlāʼī (OCLC 785065773) and "Taqwīm al-adwīyah, aw, al-Munjiḥ fī al-tadāwī min ṣunūf al-amrāḍ wa-al-shakāwī" as Abī Saʻīd Ibrāhīm ibn Abī Saʻīd al-ʻAlāʼī al-Maghribī (OCLC 796221762). The manuscript was read and collated with the copyist (whose name is not mentioned), as mentioned in the colophon, by the physician ʻAbd Allāh ibn ʻAbd al-Muṭṭalib al-Khālidī (?) al-Khurāsānī (an obscure physician) on 23 Ramaḍan, 1021 H (17 November, 1612). Place of copying not mentioned, probably in Iran

Abstract:
A zoological encyclopedia listing the names of the different animals, birds and insects arranged alphabetically, with anecdotes, poems and folkloric tales, but the most important part of this work is the description of the medicinal properties of the animals and their different organs. It is the most comprehensive zoological work in Arabic and a store-house of folk-lore and popular medicine. The author is Muḥammad ibn Mūsá al-Damīrī (1341?-1405), a Shafiite Egyptian scholar, from Cairo. He worked as a tailor, but then devoted himself to learning and scholarship and became a prominent scholar at al-Azʹhar. He also lived for a while in Mecca and Medina. al-Damīrī finished writing his book in the month of Rajab, 773 H (January/February, 1372). The book is in two versions: long and short. The present manuscript is the long version and according to a recent note on leaf 1a it was copied from a manuscript copied in 805 H (1402/1403). Name of copyist and place and date of copying not mentioned, probably from the 17th century
