The preface, which is without interest, begins: الحمد لله مخترع العقل الفعّال. It is followed by an introduction on philosophy in general. There is also a long epilogue, which begins: و لیکن هذا آخر ما تيسر لنا في شرح هذا الكتاب‘ مستعينين بملهم الصواب‘ عند تلاطم امواج الهموم‘ و تراكم افواج الغموم‘ و خلوّ الديار‘ عمن يعرف قدر غوامض الاسرار‘ و علوم الابرار‘ سيّما في هذا الزمان الذي انطفأت فيه انوار الحكمة الخ. Neatly written in Nasta’lîk. This copy was transcribed at Ḥaidarâbâd (in Sindh), probably from the author’s own copy, by a native of Sîwistân.1 With some marginal notes of the author. The last two pages contain tables, in the same handwriting, on the influences of the stars, derived from IBN SÎNÂ, تاثير الافلاك في العالم من قول الشيخ الرئيس ابي علي, which are followed by some notes and Persian verses. Conclusion: كتبت هاتين الصفحتين بامر الاخ الاعز الفاضل الاحب الاكرم مولانا محمد جعفر ... و انا اقل العبيد ابن محمد مقيم محمد رشيد الخ.

Ghauth al-islâm Ṣiddîḳî, on the treatise on Dialectics , الرسالة الشريفة الشريفيّة فى علم آداب المناظرة by Saiyid Sharîf Jurjânî (d. A.H. 816). The author of this commentary was pupil of Maḥmûd Fârûḳî, of Jaunpûr,1 of whom he speaks in the following terms (fol. 3): (كنت) مستفيضا لمآرب شرذمة منها من جناب النفس القدسية التی ليس كمثلها احد فى الهند و السند بل فى التوران و الايران.... مولانا المحمود (!) الجونفورى مولدا و الفاروقى محتدا مدّ الله تع ظله الظليل الخ. He composed his commentary for the use of students, in Ramaḍân, 1060. The preface begins:سبحانك يا مجيب دعاء السائلين بلا مانع و معارض ; and the epilogue runs as follows : هذا اتمام الكلام بتوفيق الملك المنعام و قد طويت فى هذا الشرح ما سنح لى فى اثناء تاليفه على الشرح الجديد الجونفورى لبعض افاضل الوقت وان ساعدنى الفرصة فقد افرد له شرحا آخر كما امرنى به استاذى بل استاذ الجل و مولاى بل مولى الكل انشاء الله تع. The treatise of Jurjânî commences : الحمد لله الذى لا مانع لحكمه .... اما بعد فان هذه قواعد البحث الخ. It consists of a مقدّمة , nine بحث , a تكملة , and a خاتمة. Clearly written in Nasta’liḳ, of the twelfth century. It was transcribed by Muḥammad Fâdil Ḳanaujî (قنوجی) , by order of Mîr Saiyid Luṭf ‘Alî son of Mîr Saiyid Ibrâhîm. Marginal and (Persian) interlinear notes in the earlier portion. On the title-page are seventeen Persian distichs, inscribed رسالة منظومة در بحث , and attributed to JÂMÎ. [Hastings.]   1 See no. 561.
