Persian Manuscripts
<p style='text-align: justify;'> This composite manuscript features one Persian and three Arabic texts, collectively entitled <i>Majmū‘ah-i ‘Uṣūl-i Fiqh</i> (Compendium on the Principles of Islamic Jurisprudence). A scribe named al-Sayyid Muḥammad ‘Alī bin al-Mawlavī Aḥmad ‘Alī completed the first two texts at the end of 29 Ramaz̤ān 1244 AH (late Mar.–early Apr. 1829 CE), while another named Amīn al-Dīn Ahmad ibn Ḥāfiẓ Muḥammad Sa‘d Allāh al-Ṣadīqī al-Qarshī copied the last two undated works. Subsequent owner Colonel George William Hamilton (1807-1868) acquired the two manuscripts and probably had them repaired and rebound together in one volume.</p>
