Summary note
Collection of several treatises on medicine, translated into Arabic by Ḥunayn ibn Isḥāq. The ms. contains two main parts: the first text which is a later addition and texts 2-10, all written by the same hand. There seems to be two parts in this last section the first called "al-Jawāmiʻ" (texts 2-6, see colophon, fol. 244b) and the last four texts.
Notes
Ms. composite codex.
Title from inscription on the lower edge of the textblock.
Marginal notes (mostly ḥāshiyah from the author, copied by the same hand, see fol. 42b, 53a). Smaller leaves are inserted between the ms. leaves, with inscriptions by the same hand as the main text (mostly ḥāshiyah from the author, see between fol. 51 and 52; 112-113; 211-212). On fol. 1a: Obliterated seal impression. On fol. 41a (i.e., fol. 1a of the original ms.) is a table of contents.
Collation: Paper ; fol. ii + 378 + i ; quires signed using Arabic numerals in the form "7 min 3" (often cut off due to the trimming of the leaves, but still visible on some quires, see fol. 96a, 126a, 136a, 146a, 156a) ; signs in the upper corner and lower corner of the opposite leaf marking the middle of the quire (see fol. 130-131; 220-221) ; modern foliation in pencil using Western numerals.
Layout: 21 lines per page ; ruled ; fol. 1b-2a frame-ruled in gold and black.
Description: The first text is written in nastaʻlīq in black ink ; from text 2 on: written in careful and professional vocalized medium large naskh in black ink (faded to brown) ; rubricated ; watermarks.
Paper: Light cream glazed paper with horizontal laid lines visible
Origin: Copied by ʻUthmān ibn ʻAlī ibn Muḥammad al-Samarqandī in 572 H. (colophon of text 6, fol. 244b), except the first text, copied for Dāmādzādah Afandī by Muḥammad Amīn al-Ḥasanī ibn ʻAbd Allāh al-Tūqātī in Dhū al-Qaʻdah 1138 in Wadī al-kabīr (colophon, fol. 40a).
Incipit:: [الصناعة الصغيرة] قال جالينوس كل التعاليم التى تجري على ترتيب فان المسالك فيها على ثلثة انحا احدها يكون على طريق -- [البحران] اصناف البحران ستة احدها التغيّر الذي يكون دفعةَ الي البر ويقال له بحران جيّد -- [اصناف الحميات] صناف الحميات صنفان فمنها جوهرية ومنها عرضية والاصناف الجوهرية هى التى توخذ من نفس الحرارة -- [الحيلة للبرء] قال جالينوس ان قوماً من الاطبا صنفوا الامراض صنفين وقالوا ان بعضها امراض ... وبعضها امراض انبعاث -- [تدبير الاصحا] قال ان البدن لو كان لا تقبل التا-ير بمنزلة الحجر الاصم لكان مستغنياً عن صناعة تقوم بمصلحته -- [فرق الطب] جمل المعاني التي في كتاب جالينوس في الفرق عشرة ابواب ... قال جالينوس ان قصد الطبّ التماس الصحة وغايته احرازها والطبيب مضطر الي ان يعلم الاشيا التي يفيد الصحة اذا فقدت -- [النبض الى طوثرن] قال جالينوس اني ذاكر لك ايها الحبيب طوئرن في كتابي هذا ما ينتفع بمعرفته المتعلمون من امر النبض فامّا جميع علم النبض فقد متبتُ في كتاب غير هذا فاقول انّ العُروق الضوارب كلها -- [كتاب الى اغلوقن] انه ليس ينبغي للطبيب ان تقتصر على معرفته بالطبيعة التي تعم جميع الناس باغلوقن دون ان يعرف الطبيعة التى تخص كل واحد من الناس -- [كتاب في الاسطقسات] انه لما كان الاسطقس اقل جزو مما هو له اسطقس
