Biography and History [IO Islamic 1399]

<strong>Biography and History. </strong> <strong>This manuscript is now IO Islamic 1399 </strong><strong>in the India Office collections.</strong> <strong>[metadata:</strong> <strong>Otto Loth, </strong><strong><em>A Catalogue of the Arabic Manuscripts in the Library of the India Office</em>, (volume 1), no. 707 here with further notations and hyperlinks]</strong>. 707. 1399. Size 11^1/2 in. by 6^1/4 in.; foll. 520. Twenty-seven lines in a page. Another copy of proceeding work. Well written, by ‘Abd al-razzâḳ b. Ḥasan Muḥammad قربسى (sic), at Aḥmadâbâd. Dated 24th Ṣafar, 1034. The original copy appears to have had several defects, for which blanks were left. All of these have been subsequently filled up in a bad hand. On the fly-leaves of this MS. (foll. 44-46) are added, by different hands, the commencement of an alphabetical list of all the persons whose deaths are mentioned in the present work; and a notice of Taftâzânî, and the dates of his various works, said to be the inscription of his tomb. A later owner, Muḥammad, Riḍa b. Ghulâm Muḥammad, who bought the MS. A.H. 1146, prefixed to it a list of the events and persons mentioned under each year (foll. 2-43). Fol. 1 gives the two notices of the author mentioned already under the preceding no. (note1). Foll. 76, 77, and 398 are misplaced in binding, as may be seen from the original pagination.

Ḥasan Muḥammad（原文标注为قربسى，疑为拼写失误），抄本字迹工整。抄录日期：伊斯兰历1034年宰福月24日。原抄本存在多处残缺，故留有空白待补，后续有人以拙劣笔迹将所有空白处补全。本手稿的衬页（第44至46叶）由不同抄写者附加两项内容：其一为本书提及的所有逝者姓名按字母排序的名录开篇；其二为关于塔夫塔扎尼（Taftâzânî）的记载，以及其多部著作的成书日期，据称该内容为其墓碑铭文。该手稿的后续藏家为穆罕默德·里达·本·古兰·穆罕默德（Muḥammad, Riḍa b. Ghulâm Muḥammad），其于伊斯兰历1146年购得此稿，并在卷首附加了按年份分列的相关事件与人物名录（第2至43叶）。第1叶记载了前一条目（注释1）中提及的关于作者的两项记述。根据原始页码可知，第76、77及第398叶在装订时位置错乱。【黑斯廷斯（Hastings）】
