Notes
Treatises and excerpts on medicine and pharmacology, four of which are by Najīb al-Dīn Abū Ḥāmid Muḥammad ibn ‘Alī ibn ‘Umar al-Samarqandī (نجيب الدين أبو حامد محمد بن علي بن عمر السمرقندي, d. 1222). Collections of medical works by al-Samarqandī often circulated in various compilations under the collective title
al-Najībīyah al-Samarqandīyah
(النجيبية السمرقندية).
Colophons to the second, third and fourth texts indicate that the volume was transcribed in mid-1576 (Rabīʿ I-II 984) by an un-named scribe.
