Physical description: 12 lines per page. Written in taʻlīq in black ink with use of green for headings, often written on a dark yellow ground, with vocalization in red. Use of yellow and green for re-inking and filling. Subject headings on the margin in black, red, magenta, and blue.

Inscription in Arabic script on a label pasted on the upper cover: "Thānī 336". Inscription in Arabic script on a label pasted on the pastedown of the upper cover: "Ḥāʼ 1224".
Three slips with annotations are re-used letters (now shelved separately). See M. Kemper, Shikhsaidov, A., Tagirova, N. The Library of Imam Shamil, Princeton University Library Chronicle, vol. LXIV (2002), p. 135 and n. 38, and p. 139 and n. 43.
Origin: A note at the end of the text seems to indicate that the ḥāshiyah(?) was completed in 1272 H. [1855 or 6] (see fol. 338b).

Explicit: وعتف المستولدة من راس المال
