Description:
|
This copy of the Mas̲navī-i Ma‘navī (Spiritual Couplets) by Jalāl al-Dīn Rūmī (1207–1273) opens with a brief Arabic preface and contains six lavishly illuminated carpet page openings indicating the start of each of the book within the volume. Although he did not date all of them, a scribe named Bāyazīd signed his name in the final colophon, and also describes how completed various books within this volume between 1043 and 1044 AH (1633–35 CE).
