Notes
The colophon gives the dates as A.H. 1258 (A.D. 1929, A.M. 5700) which is evidently an error; if A.M. 5700 is correct, then the corresponding dates should be A.H. 1358 (A.D. 1939).
The colophon of the prototype, given on leaf 116 recto, is dated A.H. 1066 (A.D. 1655 or 1656), hence it could not have been a lithographed edition but a handwritten copy.
Incipit: "Bismillāh al-Raḥmān al-Raḥīm. al-Ḥamdu lillāh alladhī jaʻala al-shmasa ḍiyāʼan wa-al-qamara nūran, wa-basaṭa ʻalá basāʼiṭ al-basīṭ ẓillan wa-ḥarūran ..."
البداية: "بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم. الحمد لله الذي جعل الشمس ضياءً والقمر نورًا، وبسط على بسائط البسيط ظلًا وحرورًا ..."
Fair naskhī, in red and black.
With copious diagrams.
Islamic binding, in red, with flap.
Colophon: "Intahaytu min naql hādhā al-kitāb ʻan ṣūrah khaṭṭīyah bi-Maktabat al-Amīr Fārūq Bū Hāj. Wa-al-nuskhah al-madhkūrah maktūbah bi-khaṭṭ Fārisī, lā yumkinu an yuktaba khaṭṭ abdaʻ minhu, ḥaythu ishtabahnā anā wa-jamīʻ ikhwānī bi-anna hādhihi al-nuskhah al-madhkūrah maṭbūʻah ʻalá al-ḥajar, wa-lākin lā yumkinu dhālik, ḥaythu yūjad sharḥ bayna al-suṭūr bi-al-aḥmar wa-al-aswad, ka-khaṭṭ al-nuskhah ṭibqa al-aṣl.

الخاتمة: "انتهيت من نقل هذا الكتاب عن صورة خطية بمكتبة الأمير فاروق بو هاج. والنسخة المذكورة مكتوبة بخط فارسي، لا يمكن أن يكتب خط أبدع منه، حيث اشتبهنا أنا وجميع إخواني بأن هذه النسخة المذكورة مطبوعة على الحجر، ولكن لا يمكن ذلك، حيث يوجد شرح بين السطور بالأحمر والأسود، كخط النسخة طبق الأصل. في تاريخ يوم الاثنين، 9 شوال، سنة 1258 هـ، الموافق 20 نوفمبر سنة 1929 م، 10 هاتور، سنة 1656 ق، 7 تشرين ثاني، سنة 2251 رومية، 8 كسلو 5700 عبرية. طه يوسف محمود محمد، من ناحية درنكة، أسيوط."
Translation of the colophon: "I finished copying this book from a manuscript housed at the Library of Prince Fārūq Bū Hāj. This copy was written in a Farsī script, the like of which cannot be more admirable, to the extent that I and all my colleagues thought that this copy was a lithograph, but this is impossible, because there are interlinear commentaries in red and black, written exactly with the same script as that of this copy. Dated on Monday, 9 Shawwāl, 1258 of the Hijrah [13 November 1842], corresponding to 20 November, 1929 M, 10 Hātūr 1656 Q [Coptic], 7 November, 2251 of the Greek year, and 8 Kislev, 5700 of the Hebrew year. Ṭāhā Yūsuf Maḥmūd Muḥammad, from the region of Durunkah, Asyūṭ."
Provenance
Gift of Captain Ü. Tekeş in March 1965.
