Original covers made of glued sheets of paper with a flap on the back cover, fully covered in leather. Cloth binding. Nesha. The manuscript is written in black ink, certain terms and marks in the text are written in red ink. Notes between the lines and in the margins are written in black and red ink. The text of the manuscript is framed by a thin red frame. Text on p. 2b and 3a is specially framed with a thick gold-colored border and a thin black line. Unvan on p. 2b is decorated with a stylized floral motif ornament in gold, purple, blue, red, white, black, gray and orange. While at first glance it may seem that life events that are considered sacred rites in other religions are not ceremonial in the same way in Islam, it would be a mistake to think of Sunni practice as devoid of ceremony. In fact, as some scholars have noted, everything is potentially sacred in that the Sunnah of Muhammad is seen as a model of behavior even in the most banal aspects of life. Many people have held that there is no real distinction between the secular and the sacred in Islamic law, a claim that arose from the idea that Sharia addresses family, civil, and criminal law as areas of law that relate to the practical act of faith. While it may seem, at first, that the life events considered to be sacraments in other faiths are not ceremonial in the same way in Islam, it would be a mistake to consider Sunni practice devoid of ceremony. In fact, as some scholars have observed, everything is potentially sacred in that the Sunna of Muhammad provides a model for behavior in even the most mundane aspects of life. Many people have opined that there is no real separation between the secular and the sacred in Islamic law, a statement that is derived from the idea that the shariah addresses family, civil, and criminal law as well as laws regarding acts of worship.
