Reference:
- Catalogus Codicum Orientalium Bibliothecae Lugduno-Batavae, 2644 (V, p. 233)
- Catalogus Codicum Orientalium Bibliothecae Lugduno-Batavae, 2644 (V, p. 233)
Note:
- Completed in Şeki (at present also in Azarbeijan) before the Friday prayer of the last day of Z̲ī l-ḳa‘de or the first day of Z̲ī l-ḥicce of 993 (25 October 1585).
- Copy, probably an autograph, of a work on the Shirwān campaign.
- The copy seems to be unique; the work is not mentioned in Kātib Çelebis Kashf aẓ-ẓunūn (cf. also Franz Babinger. Die Geschichtsschreiber der Osmanen und ihre Werke, p. 117n) nor has a copy survived in the Topkapı Sarayı Library.
- The work has lengthy passages in Arabic punctuated by verse in Arabic, Persian, and Turkish, and lengthy quotations from ḥadīs̲ works and other texts in Arabic.
- The margins are filled with innumerable corrections and additions in the same hand that wrote the text; parts of it and of the marginal additions, some of these written in a zig-zag pattern, are crossed or blotted out with red ink. The text is preceded by two fragments in, respectively, f. 1a and ff. 1b-2a (breaking off just below the middle of the page), to which again many marginal additions have been made. The first fragment contains a text in Arabic on the merits of science (‘ilm), the second, which may well belong to the main work, describes the preparations of a military campaign against Persia by a sultan.
- Glazed white paper; 17 lines; catchwords, occasionally missing; small, idiosyncratic nesiḫ; headings, rubrics, dots and lines in red; green lines and dots in f. 1a; a map in black, red and green in f. 14b; a genealogical table in f. 90a.
- The MS is bound, together with Or. 801 [2], in boards covered in varicoloured marbled paper with leather backing and edges.
- Leiden : Brill, 2012.
