Notes
The first page of it is braided in red and black ink, 22 x 16.5 cm. The beginning of the manuscript: Praise be to God, who bestows His bounty upon all His servants. Yahmud. This is the introduction to the book Kalila and Dimna, presented by Yahmud bin Ishaq Al-Persi, known as Ali bin Shah Al-Persian. He mentioned the reason for which Bidya, the Indian philosopher, wrote for Dibalshim, King of India, the book that he called Kalila and Dimna... It has traces of its earth, moisture and wetness. Within this collection is the first book of it. The headings of paragraphs, chapters, chapters, and some words and phrases were written in red ink. Place the pictures of animals, humans, and others in white in the text and write the name of the picture on the right or left margin. Its leaves are broken. Transcribed by: Mikhail Al-Naqqash The end of the manuscript: Examine until your intention improves by hastening your thought and mind in what I have described to you, although no one is happier with it than the one who obeys it, nor is the advisor more worthy of advice than the one who is advised, nor is the learner more knowledgeable than the one from whom he learned it. Understand this, O King, and you will become wise.|And this is what has reached us from the knowledge of the book of Kalila and Dimna, with the help of God Almighty.
