Description provided by Noah Gardiner.Shelfmark: Ann Arbor, University of Michigan, Special Collections Research Center, Isl. Ms. 464Origin: Colophon provides no information on copyist or date of copying ; paper suggests late 13th or 14th century. An ownership notice below the colophon on fol.157b (p.316) appears to be dated 709 [1309 or 10] and provides a rough terminus ante quem.Accompanying materials: a. Inventory cataloguing slip in hand of Winifred Smeaton Thomas. -- b. Acquisitions slip from Yahuda.Former shelfmark: From inner front cover, "IL 350" (likely supplied by Yahuda, see acquisitions slip).Binding: Pasteboards covered in brown leather ; Type II binding (with flap) ; board linings in laid paper ; upper and lower covers carry tooled central circular decoration (shamsah) with neither lobed edge nor pendants but filled with geometric interlace forming an octagonal pattern incorporating epigraphic stamps (compare Weisweiler 17-20) ; these stamps are repeated at the four corners of the elaborate blind-stamped border consisting of a series of vegetal stamps separated by incised fillets (compare no.31 as well as nos. 32-35 in Bosch, et al.) ; sewn in yellow then blue thread, two stations ; headband gone, tailband in blue largely survies ; in poor condition ; upper cover is extremely worn and has suffered losses ; spine has been partially repaired with a red, fabric-based tape ; portion of fore-edge flap remains, though it has been covered with a different brown leather, as has the rest of the spine ; threads of the first few quires are loose.Support: non-European (Arab?) laid paper, the lines of which are difficult to describe neatly ; horizontal laid lines 20 in roughly 27 mm. ; chain lines may be sets of three and two, with chains spaced 12-15 mm. apart, distance between the groups is difficult to discern.Decoration: Text rubricated with section headings and keywords (e.g. "المسئلة الخامسة" or "قوله تعالى") in red ; three circles and single circles appearing in margin (likely collation marks) also in red.Script: Naskh ; elegant Yemeni hand (?) ; unvocalized and very casually pointed ; most notable for the frequent horizontal elongation of letters, e.g. sīn within a word, tāʼ, thāʼ, and bāʼ at the ends of words, etc. ; descenders are often quite elongated and curvilinear and final descender letters (ahdāb) are often disproportionately larger than other letters.Layout: Written in 25 lines per page ; frame-ruled.Collation: i, V-1 (9), III (15), 14 V(155), I (157), i ; chiefly quinions ; catchwords present, appear throughout the first quire, in all subsequent quires appear only on the verso of the final leaf of each quire ; catchword at fol.115b (p.232) does not match with what follows, which may indicate a missing quire ; pagination in pencil, Western numerals, supplied during digitization (includes flyleaves).Colophon: "Scribal," reads: "تم الجزء الثاني بحمد الله ومنه وفضله ويتلوه [؟] في الجزء الثالث قوله سبحانه وتعالى حيث ما كنتم قولوا وجوهكم سطره والحمد لله رب العالمين والصلوة على اشرف المرسلين محمد خاتم النبيين واله وصحبه اجمعين وسلم تسليما كثيرا"Explicit: "المسألة الثانية عشرة إذا توجه إلى جهة ثم تغير اجتهاده وهو في الصلاة فعليه أن ينحرف ويتحول ويبني لأن عارض الاجتهاد لا يبطل السابق، فكذلك فيمن صدق مخبراً ثم جاء آخر نفسه إليه أسكن فأخبره بخلافه، فهذا ما يتعلق بالمسائل المستنبطة من هذه الآية في حكم الاستقبال والله أعلم"Incipit: "قوله تعالى الم فيه مسألتين المسألة الاولى اعلم ان الالفاظ التي يتهجي بها اسماء مسمياتها الحروف المبسوطة"Title from 'title page' fol.1a (p.3).Ms. codex.Brit.
