Notes
There are comments in the margins in black and red, and neither its title nor the name of its author was mentioned in the letter. It is very incomplete when compared to a copy that is the fourth in a collection preserved in Ragheb Pasha’s library with number 919 on the Kitab Bidya website, noting that some may attribute it to Al-Abhari.
Sample Text
Praise be to God, Lord of the Worlds... And then: A group of virtuous people and a group of friends asked me for a letter that would be an introduction and a tool for acquiring proofs of arithmetic sciences, such as algebraic and surveying, and that is based on the foundational forms from Euclid’s book, which are honorable forms upon which geometry proofs are built.
