Author: Jazūlī, Muḥammad ibn Sulaymān, d. 1465Date: 1900-1999Language: ArabicMaterial: PaperRepository: Cambridge University LibraryClassmark: MS Or.2251Description: A late African copy of the Dalā'il al-khayrāt, a 'manual' composed of blessings and prayers for everyday life and in particular for the pilgramige to Mecca. Partly composed of selections from the Qur`an and sayings of the prophet, the original work is attributed to the Sufi Muḥammad ibn Sulaymān al-Jazūlī (d. 1465 CE), who lived in in Marrocco . This text has been copied by hand throughout the Islamic world from North West Africa to South East Asia until the last century, with many copies containing illuminations and illustrations. The present manuscript is an example of an originally unbound copy, held together by a string, which is attached to the cardboard cover, probably self made or comissioned by the last owner of the book. The text is clear and in the right order. Not containing illustration, it is an evidently used copy, bearing witness of a tradition of manuscript production common to its region of descent.IIIF Manifest:https://cudl.lib.cam.ac.uk/iiif/MS-OR-02251
