The statement “Only the purified shall touch it” on outer binding spine suggests that it may have originally been produced for a copy of the Qur’ān. Laminate paper boards with blue pastedowns. This binding is severely damaged.The inner binding has front and back boards (no longer attached to textblock) but no spine. Tooled leather covers with one center stamp and four corner pieces. Boards appear to be made of laminated paper, lined with waste paper. No traces of envelope flap apparent (edges of the boards are damaged, clear where original turn-ins were). No evidence of endbands; Some evidence of tie-down in purple thread and of link-stitch sewing using five stations. The first 7 folios of the manuscript appear to consist of pages from an book/ledger accounts. Unclear if these pages were originally part of the inner binding. Text block is of European style laid paper with watermark showing a lion holding a sword in a crowned circle. Countermark: Van Gelder (Dutch papermaker in Wormer - see Voorn 1960: pp.433-439, 488). Post 1803.
Sample Text
Part four of a collective volume of four texts bound together and written in one hand. Based on the interlinear Javanese translations and marginal comments, and the content of the volume, this manuscript was possibly used by a student as a text book taught in a pesantren (Islamic school) in Indonesia. This final text contains a commentary and explanation of Umm al-Barāhīn of Muḥammad ibn Yūsuf al-Sanūsī in Islamic creed by Abū ʿAbd Allah Muḥammad ibn Sulaymān al-Jazūlī (d. 1465) (Soebardi 1975, p. 165).
