Notes
The Pandnāmah (Book of Advice), or Karīmā(O Merciful!), a highly-popular book of ethical exhortations and sage advice that while erroneously attributed to Saʻdī (d. 1292), enjoyed broad circulation since at least 150 years after his death., Francis Gladwin (1744/5–1812) first translated it into English for use as a textbook to instruct British civil servants of the East India Company in Persian. Renowned Delhi scribe Sayyid Abū’l-Ḥasan Raz̤avī (fl. late 18th-early 19th c.), known as 'Mīr Kallan', a leading student of master calligrapher Muḥamamd Ḥafīẓ Khān (d. 1780) completed this small volume in 1800., Featuring elaborately illuminated opening pages, a stationer-copyist replaced four missing folios before rebinding it in a hybrid British-Indian style. - The Pandnāmah (Book of Advice), or Karīmā(O Merciful!), a highly-popular book of ethical exhortations and sage advice that while erroneously attributed to Saʻdī (d. 1292), enjoyed broad circulation since at least 150 years after his death., Francis Gladwin (1744/5–1812) first translated it into English for use as a textbook to instruct British civil servants of the East India Company in Persian.
