Notes
Shelfmark: Ann Arbor, University of Michigan, Special Collections Research Center Isl. Ms. 608 | Origin: As appears in colophon on fol.101b copied by Muḥammad ibn Maḥmūd [...?]. Copying finished in the middle of Shaʻbān 942 [February 1536]. | Accompanying materials: a. Inventory cataloguing slips in hand of Winifred Smeaton Thomas. -- b. Acquisitions slip from Yahuda. | Former shelfmark: From inner front cover and spine label, "IL 84" (likely supplied by Yahuda). | Binding: Pasteboard covered in marbled paper (in lavender, blue and white) with light brown leather on the spine and fore-edge flap (nearly half-bound); Type II binding (with flap); intact and likely later than text. | Support: non-European laid paper; non-"Mamluk" with slightly curved (wavy), single chain lines running horizontally and separated by roughly 32 cm. ; laid lines running vertically and spaced roughly 8-9 laid lines per cm. (see fol.5 for very clear chain lines); flyleaves of European laid paper with watermark partially visible "AGNANI" [?]. | Decoration: Text rubricated with words such as "qāla" marking the dialogic relationship between this gloss and text which it is glossing, in red; red overlines and flourishes are also occasionally used. | Script: Naskh; very small hand with alifs just under 2 mm. high, having an Eastern and possibly Persian character; lām alifs have a prominent barbed serif on the left-hand ascender; an upward-spiraling hāʼ is used in the colophon (fol. 101b); elongated swooping tails on some final letters; tanwīn al-fatḥah is marked, hamzah and shaddah are not. | Layout: Written in 17 lines per page; frame-ruled. | Collation: 9 V (90), VI-1 (101) (final quire could be V+1 but numerous repairs make it difficult to ascertain; sewing appears after the 6th folio); catchwords present; pagination in pencil, Western numerals (referenced in cataloguing). | Colophon: "Scribal," triangular, reads: "تم الكتاب بعون الملك الوهاب [...؟] عباد الله محمد بن محمود [...؟] في اواسط شهر شعبان المعظم في سنة اثنين واربعين وتسعمائة" | Explicit: "ان التصديق بوجود الموضوع جزء من العلم وهذا الجواب مردود لان الشيخ الرئيس قد صرح في الشفاء بان التصديق بوجود الموضوع من المبادى التصديقية فلا يكون جزء على [...؟] بل مندرجا في المبادى التصديقية" | Incipit: " قال ورتبته على مقدمة و[ثلاث] مقالات وخاتمة اقول هكذا وجدنا عبارة المتن في كثير من النسخ والصواب " | Title from inscription on fol.1a 'titlepage'. | Ms. codex. | Gloss on the commentary by Muḥammad ibn Muḥammad al-Rāzī Quṭb al-Dīn al-Taḥtānī, (d.766/1365) on al-Risālah al-shamsīyah, a treatise on logic by ʻAlī ibn ʻUmar al-Qazwīnī (d. 675/1276).
