    Notes
    • Ms. codex.
    • Title from fol. 1a.
    • Incipit: الحمد لله الذى وصف الانسان بما وصف به نفسه
    • Explicit (as extant): ولا مراقبة لهم في شيى الا في قلبهم فانه الذي وسعه
    • 19 or 27 lines per page. Written in small casual naskh in black ink. Ff. 2b-13b and fol. 28 are in a different style, have the smaller number of lines per page and are on different paper to the rest, thus are probably earlier than the rest of the ms. Catchwords on the verso of each leaf. Marginal annotations and corrections to the main text throughout. Foliation in Western numerals in pencil. Modern dark and light cream papers. A loose sheet between fol. 25 and 26. Colophon on fol. 52b completely obliterated by water damage. Fol. 53a has a circular chart with 'Shajarat al-Zaqqūm' in the centre, and 'al- tawḥīd' on the outer most circumference.
