Summary note
A commentary in verse on al-Shamāʾil al-Nabawīyah by Muḥammad ibn ʻĪsá al-Tirmidhī (d. 892). The title on fol. 1a and the labels on the inside of upper and lower covers attribute the work to "Aşik Paşa" -- Alaeddin Ali Aşik Paşa (1272-1333)?. However, available reference sources do not mention this work in relation to Alaeddin Ali (e.g. see EI, EB, Ṭāhir etc.) and the label on the inside of lower cover of the ms. also states that the work was composed in 1157 (1744-45), the date being acquired from the chronogram at the end of text (see explicit).
Notes
Ms. codex.
Title from fol. 1a.
Copied by "zade-yi Köprülüzade" (the son of Köprülüzade?) Seyit Mehmet Nafi el-müderris, and completed on the 2nd of Dhū al-Ḥijjah 1225 (1810) -- colophon (fol. 91b).
17 lines per page. Written in a small nastaʻlīq in black ink with use of red for rubrication. Text is written inside a gold leaf frame outlined in black ink, with columns and separate couplets also divided with lines in gold leaf outlined in black ink. Text frames on fol. 2b-3a are double with additional lines in red ink. Catchwords on the verso of each leaf. Glazed European paper. Ms. has marginal annotations, mostly excerpts from Qārī al-Harawī's commentary on Shamāʾil, Jamʻ al-wasāʾil fī sharḥ al-Shamāʾil. These are in the same hand as the main text, written in a very small nastaʻlīq in black and red ink to form different shapes including crescent moon, minaret, swords, cups and bowls, fruit, trees, palm-trees etc.
