- 1519/1529
- Description:
- Five passages in Persian supposedly taken from the writings of Jābir ibn Ḥayyān. The main bulk of the corpus of texts attributed to this semi-legendary figure, however, are thought to have been composed between the second half of the 9th century and first half 10th century. Since this text begins with the Testament of Ṭughrāʾī(d. 515/1121), it cannot be true that these passages were all extraced from writings attributed to Jābir ibn Ḥayyān.Begins (f. 66v, lines 2-5):فصل وصية مؤيد الدين أبو اسمعيل الطغرائی از تدابير جابرميگويد اي پسر من چون از درويشی بترسيد بران كوه شويد كه بربالای شماستوتوانگري ميروياند بگيريد آنرا وبا اصل خودش يريد كه پیس از ان رسته استوبالا گرفته جزوهاى لطيف كه ثفلش واین نشيند وآبى زندگانی بزرگ قدروبهاEnds (f. 67v, lines 11-15):... ونفس وروحوجسد وزحل وجسدش ومشتری وارزپر سياه بس چون باز سبيد شدنامهاى ديگر تهند (؟) آتش حكيمان وزيبق مصعّد وقمر مكلّس ونحاس وآنكه تاريكىاز دبشده باشد گويند كه شرمۀ سفيد ومغنيسياى سفيد ومرد اسنگ سبيدوقمر وزیل القمر وزیل الشمس خوانندff. 66v-67vMaterial: PaperDimensions: 215 x 150 mm leaf [168 x 112 mm written]Foliation: British Museum foliation in pencil; Arabic foliation in the purple crayon typical of Lebanese bookdealers of the 19th centuryRuling: Misṭarah; 19 lines per page; vertical spacing 11 lines per 10 cm (ff. 113r-158v: 29 lines per page; vertical spacing 17 lines per 10 cm)Script: Naskhwith nasta‘līqtendencies and some titles and in thuluth(ff. 113r-158v: naskh)Scribes: Qudrat Allāh al-Marandī al-Ādharī (ff. 3r-112v) and Muḥammad ibn Sulaymān al-Mawṣilī (ff. 113r-158v)Ink: Black ink, with rubricated, yellow and green headings and overlinings in red (ff. 113r-158v: black)Binding: British Museum bindingCondition: Some worm damage, foxing, and tears towards the fore edge.
