<ul> <li><strong>Poetry and Elegant Prose.</strong></li> <li><strong>This manuscript is now IO Bijapur 133&nbsp;</strong><strong>in the India Office collections.</strong></li> <li><strong>[metadata:</strong><a href="https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otto_Loth">&nbsp;<strong>Otto Loth,&nbsp;</strong></a><strong><em><a href="http://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3923636">A Catalogue of the Arabic Manuscripts in the Library of the India Office</a></em>, (volume 1), no. 814&nbsp;here with further notations and hyperlinks]</strong>.</li> </ul> <p>814.</p> <p>B 133. Size 8^1/2 in. by 6 in.; foll. 386. Twenty-one lines in a page.</p> <p>A large Commentary on <em>&lsquo;Omar Ibn al-F&acirc;ri</em><em>ḍ&rsquo;s</em> (d. A.H. 632) renowned mystic Ḳaṣ&icirc;dah التائيّة . This commentary is chiefly grammatical. It is ascribed to FARGH&Acirc;N&Icirc; (Muḥammad b. Aḥmad, d. about A.H. 700), the earliest interpreter of the <em>T&acirc;&rsquo;&icirc;yah</em>. Cf. Ḥ. Kh. ii. 86.</p> <p>Plainly written, of the tenth century. Red lines round the pages.</p> <p>This MS. is imperfect both at the beginning and the end, and has other defects besides. The leaves are misplaced in binding ; they should stand in the following order : 1-38 (beginning at verse 2 of the Ḳaṣ&icirc;dah), 286, 164-285 (here some leaves missing ), 49-55 (here a slight defect), 377-386 (here a larger defect, extending over 19 verses), 56-163, 316-376, 287-296, 39-48, 297-315, ending at verse 758. The rest is wanting. Much injured by insects.</p> <p>The book has been wrongly inscribed as a commentary on a Ḳaṣ&icirc;dah of Sa&rsquo;d&icirc; (see fol. 1); cf. Catal. 224, xix.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
