<p class="indent">The opening <a href="glossary.html#folio">folio</a> of an anonymous compilation on <em>material medica</em> said to be taken from <em>al-Bayān</em>, presumably a reference to the popular pharmaceutical compendium <em>Minhaj al-Bayān</em> by <a href="bioI.html#jazlah">Ibn Jazlah</a> (<a href="glossary.html#d">d.</a> 1100/493). The copy is highly annotated. It is undated and unsigned but appears to have been made in the 18<sup>th</sup> century.</p>

<p class="indent">Arabic. 11 <a href="glossary.html#leaves">leaves</a> (fols. 54b-64b). <a href="glossary.html#dimensions">Dimensions</a> 23.2 x 15.8 (text area 17.8 x 11.5) cm; 22-3 lines per page. On folio 54b the title is given as <em>Mulaffaq min al-Bayān</em> (<em>A Compilation Taken from al-Bayan</em>). No author of the compilation is given, and it is possible that it refers to another writer, <a href="bioI.html#bayan">Ibn Abi al-Bayān</a> (d. 1240/638). However, since Ibn Jazlah's treatise is often referred to simply as <em>al-Bayān</em> ('The Explanation'), it seems likely that it is his treatise from which this was extracted. A precise alignment, however, has not yet been established.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p class="indent">The copy is undated. The general appearance of the paper, ink, and script suggests a date of the 18th century.</p>
|

<p class="indent">The extract consists mostly of recipes accompanied by <a href="glossary.html#marginalia">marginalia</a> that essentially form a commentary. Most of the text is written by the same person who transcribed the previous item.

On the last folio, however, the hand changes slightly; it is a similar, but smaller, hand with 26 lines per page. There are <a href="glossary.html#catchword">catchwords</a>.</p>
