B 428. Size 63/4 in. by 41/4 in.; foll. 325. Thirteen lines in a page. A treatise on Ṣûfism, in five books, entitled الجواهر الخمسة , by Abu’l-mu’aiyad, Muḥammad b. Khaṭîr al-dîn, commonly called AL-GHAUTH, a celebrated saint, who was born A.H. 906, and died probably A.H. 970, and was buried at Gwalior. See Ḥ. Kh. ii. 643; iii. 52, and Herklots’ Qanoon-e-Islam, p. 305 sqq. The Persian version of this work is mentioned in Stewart’s Catal. 38. See regarding the author, Garein de Tassy, Mém. Sur la relig. Musulm. 46 (according to the Ârâ’ish-i-Maḥfil). The author was a descendant of Khwâjah Farîd al-dîn ‘Aṭṭâr. He gives his name in the preface as follows (fol. 3v.):محمد بن خطير الدين .. 1 بايزيد ابن خواجا فريد الدين العطار , but it is given more accurately in the Persian version of this work (no. B 426), thus:محمد بن خطير الدين بن لطف بن معين الدين قتال ابن خطير الدين بايزيد پارسا ابن خواجه فريد عطار. The preface begins:الحمدلله الاحد الفرد الذى لم يلد و لم يولد2. The author relates in it that he was for a long time the pupil of the great Shaikh Ẓuhûr (al-dîn) Ḥâjjî Ḥuḍûr, and subsequently retired for more than thirteen years (?) to the mountains of قلعة الجبار , where he compiled the present work. At an ensuing meeting with his Shaikh, he offered it to him, and met with his highest approbation. He was then only twenty years of age (!). He went afterwards to Gujarât, where his work gained great popularity. At the request of many students, he made a new and better arranged edition of it, - the present one. He completed this A.H. 956, being then fifty years old. The five parts (جوهر) of this work, which represent the gradual progress of the Ṣûfî, are enumerated in Ḥ. Kh. They are inscribed here, more fully, as follows: I.(fol. 5) فى عبادة العابدين و طريقتها ; II. (fol. 44v.) فى زهد الزاهدين و طريقته ; III. (fol. 68v.) فى عمل دعوة الاسماء العظام و شرائطها . This is the chief part of the work; it is frequently referred to in the twenty-ninth chapter of the Qanoon-e-Islam. It consists of a مقدمة and fifteen فصل , a list of which is given on fol. 75v. IV. (fol. 234) فى اذكار الذاكرين و اشغال العارفين من مشرب الشطار و طريقتها , 1 on the spiritual exercises and practices of the order of the Shuṭṭârîyah, 2 to which the author belonged. The ‘’pedigree’’ (سلسلة) of this order is given at the beginning of this part (fol. 234v.) : it originates with ‘Alî and his immediate descendants, down to Ja’far Ṣâdiḳ. From ‘Abdallah الشطارى , the real founder, it descends at last to the aforesaid Ẓuhûr, and to the author, who is called here الشيخ الكامل الفاضل وحيد زمانه ابو المؤيّد محمد المخاطب بالغوث عندالله , and from him it is further continued as follows : وهو لقّن الشيخ العارف بالله تعالى سلطان الصوفية صاحب الشريعة و الطريقة و الحقيقة و المعرفة و الدين استاذ علماء الانام المفتخرين سراج الملة و الدين الشيخ وجيه الدين و هو لقّن الفقير الحقير من ليس بشئ غريب الله فى ارضه و سمائه صبغة الله عفى تعالى عنه و عن اسلافه الخ . See, regarding these two persons, no. 684. It would appear that Ṣibghat Allah wrote the copy from which this and the following one were taken. V. (fol. 310v.) 3 فى بيان اشغال ورثة الحق ( و عمل المحققين وطريقته) on esoteric tenets. This is the last and highest stage. An indifferent copy, of about A.H. 1100, with tables and diagrams. Imperfect at the end. Slightly injured by insects. Cat. 233 (Duawut), I.   1 Here follows an unintelligible character (؟ را) , which is not to be found in the following MS. It certainly marks a lacuna. 2 The commencement given by Ḥ. Kh. is that of the Persian version. 1 This title is taken from the list of contents on fol. 5. 2 ‘’Shootarcca, descendants of Shah Abdoollah Shootar-e-Nak’’-Qanoon-e-Islam, p. 289. 3 The words in brackets are taken from the list on fol. 5.

B 75. Size 93/4 in. by 63/4 in.; foll. 572. Twenty-three lines in a page. A large Commentary on a letter on mystic subject, which Saiyid Ḥâtim b. Aḥmad al-Ahdal Ḥusainî of Mokha (d. in Muḥarram, 1013) wrote, A.H. 1004, to the author of this Commentary, who was his pupil. The name of the latter occurs on fol. 45v., viz., ‘ABD AL-ḲÂDIR B. SHAIKH AL-‘AIDARÛS. He belonged to the ‘Alawî family, was born A.H. 978, and died A.H. 1038, at Aḥmadâbâd.1 He wrote this commentary after the death of Ḥâtim, A.H. 1016, and entitled it (fol. 2v.) الزهر الباسم من روض الاستاذ حاتم . Cf. regarding Ḥâtim, Catal. Mus. Brit. 309a. The preface begins:أَفتتحُ الرقيم ربّنا تقبّل منّا انك انت السميع العليم ..... الحمد لله الذى فتح ا[لوجو]د بنبيه الخاتم و ختم الاولياء بصفيه حاتم .... و بعد فان الاستاذ الاعظم و الشيخ الذى هو الاخ و ابن العم .... حاتم بن احمد الاهدل الحسينى اليمنى صاحب المخا اخو الحاتمى و سمّى حليف السخا قدّس الله روحه .... كان ارسل فى سنة اربع بعد الف الى العبد مكتوبا يشتمل على اشيآء فى السلوك و الطريق هدانى اليها و معان فى التصوّف و علم التحقيق اطلعنى و لله الحمدُ عليها جوابا لكتاب جاءه منى الخ. The commentary is preceded by a long memoir of Ḥâtim, which contains numerous extracts from his writings and poems; also another short letter of his, addressed to Shaikh ‘Abd al-wahhâb Hindi, with ample comments; and (fol. 41v.) a full account of his correspondence with the author, which was miraculously continued after his death. It concludes on fol. 50, as follows:فهذه نبذة من احوال شيخنا و استاذنا ذكرتها استطرادا و ما ذكرته من احواله و مقاماته دون ما تركته بكثير و لنشرع الآن فى المقصود من حل النفثات و شرح الاشارات قال الاستاذ الخ. The commentary begins with the Basmalah. The first words of the letter are (fol.53):حمدا لك يا من عمّ الخلق احسانه . The commentary, which is much swelled by extracts from other works and long quotations of poetry, ends, after discussing (from fol. 435) the very signature of the letter, on fol.466, as follows:هذا آخر الشرح واول الفتح قلت وانما خصصت هذه الرسالة من بين الرسائل لكثرة ما اشتملت عليه من الفوائد و الفضائل و قد احتوت على جملة من مسائل الصوفية و لعمرى انها جمعت التصوف كله الخ.   In the remaining part of the work the author treats in a very prolix manner of Ṣûfism and Saints in general; he also gives an account of his Shaikhs and his spiritual pedigree. In the appendix ( خاتمة الكتاب fol. 558v.) he speaks of the asking of forgiveness (الاستغفار) , and winds up with a long Ḳaṣîdah, each verse of which begins:استغفرُ اللهَ . The date of the work (fol. 572) runs as follows:انتهى ما تيسر من الكلام على هذه الاشارات اللطيفة و الكلمات الشريفة فى ساعة من الثلث الاخير من ليلة الثلثاء حادى عشرى شهر ربيع الاول سنة ست عشرة بعد الف ختمها الله بخير الخ. Well written by two hands. On the margin are numerous corrections and additions, which are apparently due to a collation with a revised edition of the work. Worm-eaten towards the end. Cat. 231, iii.   1 These statements are derived from المشرع المروى , a biographical history of the ‘Alawî family, which will be described under no. 717. There the name of the author is given in full, as follows: ‘Abd al-ḳâdir b. Shaikh b. ‘Abdallah b. Shaikh b. ‘Abdallah al-‘Aidarûs (fol. 121).

A Commentary (ممزوج) on Chapter 559 of Ibn ‘Arabî’s الفتوحات المكية , ascribed to ‘ABD AL-KARÎM JÎLÎ (d. A.H. 811). The author’s preface begins: اما بعد فانه لما كان العلم بالله اعظم العلوم قدراً . He selected this chapter, which is inscribed فى معرفة اسرار و حقائق من منازل مختلفة , because it comprises the leading ideas of the whole book, expressed in abstruse language (fol. 2v.):لكنه رضى الله عنه صرح بانه جمع معانى العلوم المبسوطة فى ذلك الكتاب و جعلها مرموزة فى الباب التاسع و الخمسين بعد الخمسمائة من الابواب. This is only the beginning of the work, the MS. being imperfect at the end. Plainly written in a large hand; only the last few foll. are in a smaller and more elegant handwriting. The text of Ibn ‘Arabî is written in red, and occasionally in green. II.Foll. 52-83.كتاب العظمة و يتلوه رسالة النقطة و يتلوهما كتاب الحجب نفع الله بهم المسلمين آمين و العظمة و الحجب لسيدى العارف محيى الدين بن العربى غفر الله له. a.The first of these treatises, the كتاب العظمة of Ibn ‘Arabî (foll. 52-61), is mentioned in Ḥ. Kh. v. 118. It treats of the first Sûrah of the Koran, which is considered to be the perfect expression of the Divine ‘’greatness.’’ It is divided into seven chapters, each of which refers to a section of the Sûrah, including the Basmalah. Begins:الحمد لله مبدع الثانى فى المثانى . Ends:هذه المنزل مكى و المحمل فولوى يونانى . b. Foll. 62v.-73. A theosophic treatise on the mysteries of the diacritical point, styled at the end, الرسالة القدسية فى اسرار النقطة الحسّية المشيرة الى اسرار الهوية الغيبية . The author is, according to Ḥ. Kh. iii. 427 and i. 283, Saiyid ‘ALÎ B. SHIHÂB (al-dîn) Hamdânî (d. A.H. 786). Cf. Nafaḥât al-Uns, ed Lees, p. ٥١٥, and also Cat. Mus. Brit. 406. Begins:الحمد لله الذى ظهر بما شاء لمن شاء بمشيئته الازلية ‘ و استتر عمّن شاء باستار عزته السرمدية‘ .. و بعد فلما شاع بين اهل العلم ان ارفع العلوم و اشرفها علم التوحيد الخ. The author proceeds to say (fol. 63): و لما كان معرفة اسرار الحروف مرتبطا باسرار هذا العلم الشريف و حقائق اسرار النقطة احدى المدارات التى تدور عليها دقائق علم التوحيد اردت ان اعلق بعض ما ورد على من اسرارها و خصائصها و بروزاتها بصور الاعيان الحروفية و تصاريفها المشيرة الى شئون التجليات الالهية فشرعت فى تسويد هذه الاوراق بلسان الذوق و الاشارات لا ما جرت عليه عادة ارباب العلوم الرسمية فى العبارة فى تصوير المسائل باثبا الدلائل فان جناب اسرار الجليل ارفع من ان يصل اليه البصائر الكلية بالدليل الخ. c.Foll. 74v.-83. This is, according to the above inscription, the كتاب الحُجُب of IBN ‘ARABÎ. See on it Ḥ. Kh. iii. 390. Begins:الحمدلله الذى حجبنا به عن غيره. After a preliminary discourse on love, which begins: داعية اعلم انه لولا المحبة ما صح طلب الشئ ابدا و لا وجود الشئ , an account is given of the various ‘’veils’’ separating the lover from his beloved (الحجب التى بينك و بين محبوبك ) , which, however, are not real , but only in the lover’s mind. Each of these ‘’ veils’’ is discussed in a special section. They are described as ﺣ الستر,حجاب العلم , ﺣ الحب , الخلوة ﺣ , etc. The last three pieces are well written, in the same style. Each forms a separate fascicle. Seal and signature of Ḥâfiẓ ‘Inâyat Allah b. Ḥâfiẓ ‘Alî b. Ḥâfiẓ Bahâ al-dîn on the two title-pages. Cat. 231, ii. 4(?).

Input-Output Global Hybrid Analysis of Agricultural Primary Production (IO-GHAAP) Database

A commonly used method to examine the relationship between global water consumption and production is input--output analysis. However, between approximately 70% and 90% of freshwater consumption occurs in agricultural primary production, which is often represented by only a small percentage of the total number of sectors in input-output databases. In addition, the assessment of the impact of water consumption is usually carried out at the national level. Therefore, the primary objective of the Input-Output Global Hybrid Analysis of Agricultural Primary Production (IO-GHAAP) approach was to improve assessments of water use and its impacts in input-output analysis. To achieve this objective, a global spatial model of agricultural primary production MapSPAM (IFPRI, 2019) was integrated into the existing input-output database GLORIA (Lenzen et al., 2017, 2021) via prorating. The resulting IO-GHAAPP approach includes (1) a disaggregated input-output database and novel environmental extensions for freshwater consumption and scarcity. The IO-GHAAPP database consists of 150 categories and 164 regions, resulting in a total of 24,600 region-category combinations. Forty-two of the categories are dedicated to agricultural primary production (28%). In comparison, the source input--output data consist of 120 categories and 164 regions, resulting in a total of 19,680 region-category combinations, of which 14 are dedicated to agricultural primary production (12%).   Please cite as: Bunsen, Jonas, Vlad Coroamă, and Matthias Finkbeiner. 2023. ‘Input-Output Global Hybrid Analysis of Agricultural Primary Production (IO-GHAAPP) Database’.

Io Input/Output observatory (IoIO) reduction products

Io Input/Output observatory (IoIO) reduction products This archive contains reduction products of the Io Input/Output observatory (IoIO).  IoIO is a small-aperture, robotic coronagraph that records images of both the Jovian sodium nebula and Io plasma torus (IPT) [1, 2, 3].  Surface brightness values are extracted from each image and recorded as rows in the Enhanced Character-Separated Values (ECSV) files contained in this archive.  ECSV files can be read by any CSV reader with the comment character set to "#" but are intended to be read by software that can use the metadata to interpret the comments as metadata for the column datatypes, physical units, and other information, such as the observatory location [4].  Column definitions for the ECSV files are contained in the corresponding *_column_def.txt files.
