A large white porcelain dish with cobalt blue glaze, in the middle of which is a circular frame with inscriptions inside, surrounded by four circles placed at equal distances and containing the same text. Inside the base of the dish is a six-character sign in Hongzhai script enclosed within a circle, bordered by a double line. On the middle medal was written the following phrase: “Peace be upon you with a great and great salutation by Your grace and mercy, O Most Merciful of the Merciful.” As for the medals surrounding it, the following phrase was written: “There is no boy but Ali, there is no sword except Dhu al-Faqar [Al-Faqar], and Ali is the truth. No death befalls except with the appointed term.” As for the inscriptions around the edge of the plate, they are as follows: “Call upon Ali, the One who manifests wonders/ You will find him to be your help in calamities/ The one who relies on God is in need/ Every worry and grief will be removed by your prophecy, O Muhammad, and by your guardianship, O Ali, O Ali, O Ali/ By the right of the possessor of dominion and the kingdom/ You have held fast to the one of glory, power, and power/ And we have placed our trust in the one who neither sleeps nor dies/ You have entered into God’s sanctuary and in God’s protection from the evil of all of the wilderness, by right of Ham, by right He is disobedient and disobedient. There is no power nor strength [power] except in God, the Most High, the Great, may God’s blessings be upon the Chosen One [the Chosen One] Muhammad and his entire family.
