Notes
A message on knowing how to work with the answering quarter, knowing its drawings, answering and curving, how to take the height, how to extract the time, and knowing the crescent from it. The author mentioned at the end of this letter that he has a book (Al-Jami’ Al-Mufid fi Kashf Al-Usul Al-Qadar and Birth Issues). It has some footnotes. The copyist wrote at the beginning of this copy on the authority of Ibn al-Majdi that he completed it in the year 1112 AH/1701 AD, which is an incorrect statement.
Sample Text
Praise be to God, Lord of the Worlds... As for what follows, this is a brief, revised message edited in the work of the answering quarter
