Notes
Coarse brownish paper. Tables (ff. 2b-9a, 10b-19a) are partly written in clean neskhi, partly in tiny careless neskhi. The tables are framed with black double rules; no catchwords or marginalia. ff. 17b-19a: a summary of the calendars, feasts and seasons of the Copts (al-qibṭ) and Byzantines (al-rūm). f. 20a—b: a prayer in vocalized Turkish, ending with an invocation of the prophet Muḥammad and mystics like Bāyazīd Bisṭāmī (d. 874) and Khwāja ‘Ubaydallāh Aḥrāk (d. 1490).
Cilt
The cover consists of several leaves of written lined paper, glued together and fastened with a piece of leather

Tezhip
f. 16a has a decoration, executed with a pair of dividers
Resimler
Since the work consists only of tables and figures, no reasonable citations of its beginning and end can be given. In the following only the headings of the tables are given: f. 2a—b: “al-Tārīkh al-‘Arabī” with a table spanning the years 1186-1274 (1772-1857/58) and showing the beginning of March (madkhal ādhār) for each year. ff. 3a-8b: “Tevaqqu ‘āt”(expected events). f. 9a: a table with the names of the months and the days of the week according to the Muslim and the solar calendar. ff. 10b-11 a: the heading is too worm-eaten to be readable. ff. 11b-17a each show the sketch of a crescent moon in its various stages and in different slants.
