<p class="indent">This treatise on prophetic medicine by al-<font face= "Arial Unicode MS">Ṣ</font>anawbarī, in 196 chapters (<em>babs</em>), proved very popular, judging by the large number of preserved copies and the number of printed editions that have been issued. It also has often been falsely attributed to <a href="bioS.html#suyuti">Jalāl al-Dīn al-Suyū<font face= "Arial Unicode MS">ṭ</font>ī</a> (d. 1505/911).</p>

<p class="indent">Arabic. 19 <a href="glossary.html#leaves">leaves</a> (fols. 1a-19b). <a href="glossary.html#dimensions">Dimensions</a> 21.5 x 17 (ca 17.5 x 13, variable) cm; 23-26 lines per page. The title is found near the beginning of the text (fol. 1b line 9) and in the colophon (fol. 19b lines 20-21). The author's name is given on the title page (fol. 1a) as Shaykh Mahdawi ibn ‘Ali ibn Ibrāhīm al-Yamanī al-Muqrī, where it is also stated that he died in 815 (= 1412).</p>
|

|
||
|

<p class="indent">The text is written in a very casual and ill-formed small <a href="glossary.html#naskh">naskh</a>, using black in and headings in red. The lines are rather irregular and the margins variable. There are <a href="glossary.html#catchword">catchwords</a>. The script, paper and marginalia very similar to NLM MS A38, also on Prophetic Medicine.

<p class="indent">There are <a href="glossary.html#marginalia">marginalia</a> in several hands, some quite extensive. Notes indicate that it has been <a href="glossary.html#collated">collated</a> against another copy.</p>

|
||
|
||
<p class="indent">The volume consists of 20 leaves. The title page (fol. 1a) also contains an anonymous poem. On fols. 20a and 20b there are miscellaneous recipes and notes in Arabic and Persian with an astrological chart of days of the week and planets. Several unnumbered sheets have been tipped into the volume: between fols. 12 and 13, a sheet with recipes; between fols. 13 and 14, a small sheet with notes in Persian on therapy for stomach ache; between fols. 16 and 17, a slip with two therapeutic notes on melancholia and ulcers; and between fols. 18 and 19, a slip with notes on poisonous insect and scorpion bites. </p>
