Descriptive card

A 19th-century, dated copy of a ḥadīṯ work, thematically arranged into 112 chapters by an otherwise unknown author. The title is given in the manuscript (fol. 30v) as al-Hādī li-l-mustahdī. It is the second tract in a collection of three ḥadīṯ works. A peculiar feature of this composition is that it does not contain the chain of authorities, but only the texts of the traditions. It was copied by the owner of the volume, Muḥammad [ibn] al-Ḥāǧǧ ʿUmar Efendi, on 12 Šawwāl 1275 [15 May 1859]. Fols. 25r–93r; 15 lines per page; p.d. 197×130mm, w.s. 128×83mm; marginal notes in Arabic and Ottoman Turkish in black and red ink; quarter leather binding with marbled paper covers; paper doublure; in good condition; paper without watermarks; script: nasḫī; ink: black; diagonal catchwords in black ink; headings in red ink; rule-borders on fols. 30v–31r in red ink and black lead pencil, and on fols. 31v–93r in black lead pencil; Oriental foliation; table of contents on fols. 25v–28r; fols. 28v–29v are blank; on fol. 30r possessor note and stamp; between fols. 90 and 91 there is a fol. 90a. The manuscript was in the ownership of al-Sayyid Muḥammad Saʿīd (stamp on fol. 93r), Muḥammad ibn al-Ḥāǧǧ ʿUmar Efendi on 7 Ḏū l-qaʿda 1275 [9 June 1859] (inscription on fol. 93r) and 13 Ḏū l-qaʿda 1275 [15 June 1859] (on fol. 30r). It was purchased by the Library from Rafael Danglmajer in 1950.
