f. 1v.1: In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
f. 1v.4: Praise be to God, who made knowledge a sun whose rays were protected from eclipse and a bound seed whose height was marked by the vertices, and a pole upon which the orbit of happiness revolved, and a great circle that included the best and its increase, and prayers and peace be upon our master Muhammad, the seal of the prophets, and upon his family and companions, the pure masters, an everlasting blessing as long as the earth and the heavens endure.
f. 1v.10: And then, when I saw that her shadow had diminished from the pursuit of knowledge, her inclination was far from the rate of seeking, her horses and her feet had fallen short of grasping the pinnacle of knowledge, and their paths were degraded to the depths of understanding, and they turned away from lengthy things and tended to short ones, I wrote my book called Nuzhat Al-Khatir in summarizing Zij bin Al-Shater, then I summarized it in a wonderful way and an invincible path that contained the deeds in it with the easiest take and the closest destination, and I called it Al-Lumah.
