PREFACE. in 1 8 7 0 I was honoured by the Indian Government with the commission to prepare a Catalogue raisonné of the Arabic MSS. in the Library of the India Office. I was engaged on this task, in London, from April 1870 to July 1872. Unfortunately nearly double that time has been spent in carrying the work through the press. EARLY

The larger half of the MSS. belong to the great collection of Muhammadan MSS. of the East India House. This collection was formed from the libraries of W A R R E N H A S T I N G S , T I P P U S U L T A N , R I C H A R D J O H N S O N , the G A I K W A R , Dr. L E Y D E N , etc. It comprised above 3000 volumes, which were not even classed according to the different languages (Arabic, Persian, Urdu, Malay, etc.). In 1869 the Arabic portion was picked out, for the first time, by Dr. G . H O F F M A N N (now Professor in Kiel), who also drew up a list, in which the numbers were arranged according to subjects. The original numeration was left unaltered. With the exception of the library of Tippu,—of which Major C H A R L E S S T E W A R T had prepared a catalogue, whilst it was still in the College of Fort William,*—these Arabic MSS. have remained comparatively little known, and only one has, to my knowledge, been used for an edition."!" The remaining MSS. belong to the Bîjâpûr collection, which consists almost entirely of Arabic books, only a few being Persian. A full account of the discovery of this collection, and of the transactions connected with its removal from Bîjâpûr, may be found in the Bombay Government Records, No. XLT., New Series, pp. 210 sqq. It was once the Eoyal Library of the 'Âdil-Shâhs, but was subsequently removed to the Asar Mahall J^r* )\, an ecclesiastical establishment, which owed its name to the possession of some relics of the Prophet. There the library was still to be found in 1849, when the attention of the Government of Bombay was drawn to it by a report of Mr. H . B. E . (now Sir B A R T L E ) F R E R E (see Bomb. Gov. Rec., I.e., pp. 2 1 5 sqq.). This gentleman also prevailed on a learned Muhammadan, named H A J I Î D A L - D Î N H A K Î M , to prepare a catalogue in Urdu, which was translated by Mr. E R S K I N E (Bomb. Gov. Kec., I.e., pp. 2 2 1 sqq.). After being removed, in * A Descriptive Catalogue of the Oriental Library of Tippoo Sultan of Mysore, etc. etc. described partly as MSS. of Tippu, and partly as MSS. of the College of Fort William. + 1442 Johnson (No. S82 of this Catalogue).

PBEFACE.

1851, to Satara, the whole collection was finally sent to London in 1853. Here it was examined, and a catalogue of it drawn up, in Arabic, by Mr. RIZKALLAH HASSOTJN, in 1 8 6 9 . In order to distinguish these MSS. from those of the old stock, the letter B has been prefixed to their numbers. These Bijapur MSS. were, on the whole, in a sad condition. Damp, vermin, and habitual neglect, had combined to do their work of destruction on the treasures of the Asar Mahall. They were generally deprived of their bindings; most of them were defective and in disorder; some were mere bundles of rubbish. However, I did not spare time and trouble in ascertaining the doubtful fragments, in re-arranging the leaves, and in noting the sometimes numerous defects. Now that they have been duly bound and mended, these MSS. will, I hope, still be considered a valuable portion of the Library. In most of these MSS. there is a note, stating the dates at which they were incorporated with the Library of Bijapur; to which the names of the former owners are frequently added. I have usually quoted these statements at the foot of the single articles, with the abbreviation Blj. Libr. Subsequently to the taking of Bijapur by Aurangzib, A.H. 1097 ( = A.D. 1686), the Library of the Asar Mahall was inspected by an officer of the latter, named Kabil Khan. It was again surveyed, by order of Asaf J u h , — f \ — A - H - 1146 ( = A.D. 1733). Identical notes (and seals) to this effect being in most of the books, I have not taken any special notice of them. As to the Catalogue Hakim-Erskine, it was easy to identify most of its items, by means of the inscriptions, however inaccurate, which Hakim himself had given to the fragments. This is the meaning of the abbreviation Catal., or Cat., which will usually be found at the end of the articles. In the literary notes, I have referred, as far as possible, to Hajji Khalifah's Bibliographical Dictionary, as edited by F L U E G E L (II. Kh.), and to the printed Catalogues of various collections; but I have avoided needless quotations. A list of Addenda et Corrigenda which occurred to me, after the respective sheets were printed, will be found on a subsequent page. In conclusion, I have to express my best thanks to Dr. EOST, the Librarian of the India Office Library, who first conceived the plan of cataloguing all the collections under his charge; and to Professor "VVM. W E I G H T , for his kindness in reading a proof of each sheet as it passed through the press, in order to correct faults of style and idiom. That in doing so he also saved me from some more material errors need scarcely be said. 0 . LOTH. LEIPZIG,

from

the

¿EJLj\j of Mubammad b. al-IIasan al-Hurr, in which the present work, and another one with the same title, by Sa'd b. 'Abdallah, 2 and also an abstract of the latter by Hasan b. Sulaiman, are noticed. There probably exists some relation between the two books. To conclude from the evidence of T u s i before mentioned, the present work might be considered an augmented edition of the original work of Sa'd. This would also account for the strange introduction of the Isnads noticed above.

A Commentary on a work oil Jlanafite Law, imperfect at the beginning, and without title.

Ytlsuf Samarkand! Madan'l (d. A.n. 556),' and the work commented on here, his i ü l l j - i l i t . Cf. H. Kh. vi. 391; Fleischer, Cat. Lips. 477 sq.; and Aumer, Htlas. Münch. 94. The author of the commentary is the well-known Abu'l-barakät 'Abdallah b. Ahmad Nasafi (d. A.n. 711). This commentary is described by H. Ell. (I.e.), who also gives an abstract of the epilogue. It is probably entitled ^jjLaUuuiJI. The chief authority of Nasafi is Badr al-dln Eardarl (Muhammad h. Mahmud), commonly called Ehwäharsadah (d. A.n. 651), the nephew of that Kardart {Shams al-a'immah Muhammad b. 'Abd al-sattar, d. A.n. 642) who is mentioned in the epilogue.3 Very likely, therefore, the " commentary by a disciple of Kardarl," subsequently noted by H. Eli./ is not different from the present work. Cf. Flügel, Class. 323, Only the first words of the passages commented are given (with äijS), but th® hooks, chapters, and sections of the original work are marked throughout.
