Örnek Metin	The Qānūnjah (also commonly known by its Persian name, the Qānūncha), a medical book by Mahmud ibn Muhammad al-Jaghmini, was written in the late-12th or early 13th century and, as the name indicates, was inspired by an encyclopedic work, al-Qānūn fī al-ṭibb (The canon of medicine) by Abu 'Ali al-Husayn ibn 'Abd Allah ibn Sina (980--1037), commonly known in the Latin West as Avicenna. The author of this commentary, Mahmud al-Jaghmini, is generally identified with the writer of the popular astronomical text al-Mulakhkhas fī al-Hay'a (Epitome of cosmography), although the discrepant dates assigned to al-Jaghmini's life and death (he is said by some modern historians to have died during the Mongol invasions in the early 13th century, while others list his year of death as in the middle of the 14th century) suggest the existence of multiple authors named Mahmud from the Central Asian town of Jaghmīn (present-day Uzbekistan). Al-Jaghmini's concise Qānūnjah was hugely popular and inspired numerous commentaries. The present manuscript is a copy of a Qānūnjah commentary by an unknown author, containing a detailed discussion of all ten chapters of the original work. The author of this commentary does not identify himself, but he informs us in the colophon that the work was completed in Ṣafar 1099 AH (December 1687). That the date thus provided is rendered in Persian rather than the more standard Arabic is an unexpected feature of the work. Also notable are occasional marginal drawings relevant to the art of medicine, such as the depiction of the optic chiasma and other anatomical structures. The copyist, whose name appears to have been deliberately effaced, tells us that the manuscript copy was completed on the third of Shaʻbān 1271 AH (April 21, 1855). He concludes the manuscript with a short verse in Persian invoking blessings on the unknown author of the work.
