Örnek Metin	The Prophet and Imām `Alī at the gates of Qamūṣ fortress in Khaybar, folio from the Book of Divination (Fālnāma). This folio is from a large-scale manuscript of the Book of Divination (Fālnāma), produced for the Safavid Shah Ṭahmāsp (r. 1524-1576), and now dispersed in international collections. There are two folios in the Chester Beatty (CBL Per 395.1 and 395.2). The Fālnāma is not intended to be read from cover to cover, but consulted for divination (as bibliomancy): the seeker opens a page at random, and that chosen page-opening provides the intended augury, in answer to their question. The text (beginning: "O augury user...") is on the left and a large painting (often depicting sacred figures and prophets) is on the right. For this page-opening, depicting the Prophet Muḥammad and his son-in-law Imām `Alī at the battle of Khaybar (in 628), the future is very positive. Folio, ink, colours and gold on paper, Persian text in nasta`liq script (recto), and full-page painting (verso), from the dispersed Book of Divination (Fālnāma) produced for Safavid Shah Ṭahmāsp (d. 1576), text copied by Malik Daylamī, Qazvin, Iran, c. 1550-1560. The recto text sets out the augury result for the previous page-opening (the previous folio in the sequence is in Geneva Musee d'art et d'histoire). The painting (on verso) depicts Imām `Alī and the Prophet Muḥammad at the gates of the Jewish fortress of al-Qamūṣ at Khaybar (the augury text for this painting is on the next folio in the sequence, which is CBL Per 395.1r).
