Notes on Three Arabic Manuscripts in the British Museum

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  24 December 2009

Extract

1. MS Or. 7698, entitled Ādāb al-murīdīn, was attributed by A. G. Ellis and E. Edwards to ‘Ubaidullāh b. Muḥammad b. ‘Abd al-'Azīz al-Samarqandā. The text begins on fol. 13a and is preceded in the MS by the ‘Ajā'ib al-qulūb of al-Samarqandī. A rather late note on the front page, by a hand different from that of the scribe of the two treatises, gives the contents of the MS as ‘Risāla fī ‘ajā'ib al-qulūb li-'Ubaidillāh b. Muḥammad b. ‘Abd al-'Azīz al-Samarqandī quddisa sirruhu: Kitīb Ādāb al-murīdīn’. Ellis and Edwards erroneously assumed that like the ‘Ajā'ib al-qulūb the Ādāb al-murīdīn was also by al-Samarqandī.
