<p class="indent">This short anonymous essay contains instructions for magical procedures and recipes to be used by physicians. One is said to be recommended by an unidentified Husayn al-Misri. It opens with <em>'tariqat Ma‘lun ibn Ma‘lun'</em>.</p>

|
|
|
|
<p class="indent">Arabic. 2 <a href="glossary.html#leaves">leaves</a> (fols. 75b-76b). <a href="glossary.html#dimensions">Dimensions</a> 24 x 13.6 (text area ca. 23 x 12.2) cm; 19 lines per page. Neither title nor author are given. </p>
|
|
|
|
<p class="indent">The text was copied by a different <a href="glossary.html#copyist">copyist</a> than produced the other items in the volume, which were copied in 992 (= 1584) by an unnamed <a href="glossary.html#scribe">scribe</a> in Shahr Daylaman, a town in Persian province of Dylam. </p>
|
|
|
|
<p class="indent">The text is written in a medium-large, personal, <a href="glossary.html#naskh">Naskh</a> script in black ink. The text area has been <a href="glossary.html#frame">frame-ruled</a>. The writing extends up to the edges of the <a href="glossary.html#folio">folios</a>. </p>
|
|
|
|
<p class="indent">At the bottom of fol. 76b there is a recipe written in a slightly different script. </p>
|
|
|
|
<p class="indent">The burnished, glossy beige paper has lightly scattered fibres, vertical slightly curved <a href="glossary.html#laid">laid lines</a>, and faint single <a href="glossary.html#chain">chain lines</a> (but no <a href="glossary.html#watermarks">watermarks</a>). The paper is waterdamaged and stained with thumbing and grease. The edges have been trimmed from their original size, and some of the marginal commentaries have been cut off. </p>
|
|
|
|
<p class="indent">The volume consists of 77 leaves. Fol. 1a is blank except for an incorrect title in a later hand and the trace of an owner's note. The first item (fols. 1b-38a) contains the anatomical sections from the <em>Qānūn</em> of <a href="bioA.html#avicenna">Avicenna</a> (<a href="E9_E10.html#E9">MS A 27, item 1</a>); the second item (fols. 38b-39b) is <em>Kashf ba‘d al-lughah min al-Qānūn wa-ghayrihi</em>, an anonymous commentary on terms in the Qanun (<a href="C11_C15.html#C12">MS A 27, item 2</a>); and the third item on fol. 41a is a short anonymous essay on oxymel (<a href="pharmaceutics25.html">MS A 27, item 3</a>). The fourth item (fols. 41b-75a) is an anonymous treatise on prognostics (<a href="mon9.html">MS A 27, item 4</a>), and the final item (fols. 75b-76b) contains magical procedures and invocations useful for illness here catalogued. Folios 40a is blank, and fol. 40b is blank except for an owner's note. Fol. 77 is a very different, more recent, paper, and is blank except for some owner's annotations. </p>

<h2><span class="h2blue">Provenance</span></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p class="indent">On fol. 40b there is a note stating that the owner (<em>malik</em>) is Is<font face= "Arial Unicode MS">ḥ</font>āq, the physician in Damascus (<em>tabib fi Damashq al-sham</em>) in the year 1240 [= 1824-5]. On fol. 77a there are various owner's notations, including the statement that this volume is the <em>Kanz al-atibba'</em> (<em>The Treasure of Physicians</em>) belonging to <em>al-faqir</em> Ishaq the physician (<em>al-tabib</em>) in the year 1251 [= 1835-6] and another statement that this Kanz <em>al-atibba'</em> belonged to one of the skilled wound-healers (<em>ahad min al-hudhdhaq al-sabur</em>) Is<font face= "Arial Unicode MS">ḥ</font>āq Dhil<font face= "Arial Unicode MS">ṭ</font>ā al-Yahūdī, medical practitioner in Damascus (<em>al-mutatabbib fi Dimashq al-Sham</em>); this is presumably the same owner. His assistant (<em>‘abd</em>) is named, on both fol. 77a and in yet another signature on fol. 38a, as Ibraham Rumanu <em>tabib</em>. On fol. 1a the title <em>Kanz al-atibba'</em> is repeated. On the basis of these owner's notes, Sommer incorrectly catalogued this <a href="glossary.html#manuscript">manuscript</a> as a copy of a treatise titled <em>Kanz al-atibba'</em> written by Malik Is<font face= "Arial Unicode MS">ḥ</font>āq, a Jewish physician of Damascus (see <a href="abbreviation.html#schullian">Schullian/Sommer</a>,<em> Cat. of incun. & MSS.</em>, p. 306 entry A 27). </p>
|
|
|
|
<p class="indent">The volume was purchased in 1941 by the Army Medical Library from A. S. Yahuda who acquired it in Cairo. NLM <a href="mon7.html#a23">MS A 23</a> was acquired in Cairo in the same lot. On the front endpaper several earlier labels have been pasted, including one giving the designation "ELS 1665" and two smaller ones "M[ed.] 44". </p>
