The page contains a certificate of study dated 514 (1120) and
signed by Mauhub b. Ahmad b. Muhammad b. al-Khadir. This
scholar, better known as Ibn al-Jawallqi, in whose sama the copy,
dated 16 Dhu '1-Qa'da 499 (20 July 1 106), was made, was born
at Baghdad in 466/1073, studied under numerous famous teachers
including Abu Zakartyl' Yahya b. 'All b. al-Khatlb al-TibrlzI
(d. 502/1109), and succeeded the latter as Professor of Philology
in the Nizamlya Academy. The caliph al-Muqtaft (1136-60)
patronized him and made him his personal imam; among his pupils
was the distinguished polymath Jamal al-Dln Abu '1-Faraj 'Abd
al-Rahman b. 'All b. al-jauzl (d. 597/1200). Ibn al-Jawallql was
the author of numerous important original works and commentaries,
several of which have survived: he died on 15 Muharram 539 (19
July 1 144). See Brockelmann,i. 28o,Suppl. i. 492, with references.
The page also contains a certificate of study dated Rabl' II 606
(October 1209) and signed by Abu '1-Yumn Zaid b. al-Hasan b.
Zaid al-Kindl. This famous scholar was born in 520/1126, and
became the leading authority in Syria upon Hanaft jurisprudence,
Qur'an-readings, grammar and traditions: he died on 6 Shauwal
613 (16 January 1217). He wrote several books (none of which
seems to have survived), was a fine calligrapher, and possessed a
splendid library, to which the present manuscript presumably once
belonged. See al-Suyutl, Bughyat al-<u)uat> 249-50; Ibn al-'Imad,

DEDICATION
Dedicated to the memory of Edward Edwards, late of the Depart-
ment of Oriental Printed Books and Manuscripts at the British
Museum, and in appreciation of the great assistance he rendered
over many years in the formation of this Collection.
In the world of scholarship he will be remembered especially for
his great Catalogue of Persian Printed Books, and to many friends
for his charm and invariable courtesy.
FOREWORD
A good many years ago, when I had for some time been collecting
Oriental Manuscripts either containing miniatures, or of especial
beauty or importance as illustrating the book arts, I became interested
in the civilization that existed at the time of the Arab invasions of
Asia, North Africa, and Spain. I was attracted by the culture then
prevailing among Arab scholars as compared with that of contem-
porary Europe. I realized that, whereas there were very few op-
portunities of obtaining unknown European literary manuscripts
of importance, the field of Arabic and other Oriental manuscripts
was, in comparison, practically untouched. The more I thought the
matter over, the more impressed I became with the great scope for
collecting Arabic and Oriental manuscripts notable for their rarity
and textual interest, with the information they contained about the
knowledge and theory of the theology, medicine, law, geography,
and science of the time of their composition. I thought that such
a collection would be of varied interest to scholars, and I hope that
they will have as much pleasure in studying the manuscripts in detail
as I have had in collecting them over the years.
I have been greatly helped, especially in the cataloguing of what
is now a very large collection, by the learning and brilliancy of
Professor Arberry, Litt.D., F.B.A., now Sir Thomas Adams's Pro-
fessor of Arabic in the University of Cambridge, who is responsible
for the present and next succeeding volumes, as well as by that very
distinguished scholar Professor Paul Kahle, D.D., D.Litt., F.B.A.,
who has been a resident of England for more than a decade, during
which he has been busily engaged in the preparation of other sec-
tions. Each of these scholars will be responsible for about half of
the total Catalogue. I am also greatly indebted to Mr. Wilfred
Merton and his staff who have spared no pains in the preparation
of the plates; these will be a feature of this and succeeding parts.

FOREWORD
I wish to thank also the General Editor, Mr. J. V. S. Wilkinson, and
the Oxford University Press for their care and patience.

GENERAL EDITOR'S PREFACE
The present volume contains the descriptions of 250 of the several
thousand Arabic manuscripts in the possession of Mr. Chester Beatty.
Other volumes are in preparation and will be published in due course.
This collection, which forms a distinct section of Mr. Beatty's Orien-
tal Library, was assembled over many years. His object was to gather
together manuscripts of especial rarity, or of unusual interest or im-
portance for one reason or another. This first part represents a cross-
section of the whole material, and is by no means a mere selection
of the greatest rarities, as will be seen from the parts to follow.
It was originally planned to have a detailed Catalogue containing
full descriptions of all the manuscripts, but it was afterwards decided,
owing to the great size of the .Collection, to include only brief descrip-
tions, and to supplement the main Catalogue with a series of mono-
graphs on .manuscripts of outstanding rarity or importance. Some
of these monographs are already in the press. The present work,
meanwhile, has been designed so as to give all the necessary re-
ferences to the indispensable Brockelmann; these will enable the
reader to consult detailed descriptions where these are given in other
catalogues.
No arrangement by subjects has been attempted. The thirty-five
plates, which it is hoped will be of peculiar service to scholars, have
been selected mainly on account of their palaeographical interest,
and include a considerable number of autographs of authors. The
fidelity of these plates can be vouched for.
Though all the manuscripts are of importance, it may be of as-
sistance to mention some that are (1) exceptionally old, or (2) of
unusual rarity and importance, or (3) those which are authors' auto-
graphs.
In the first category: No. 3001, dated 277 (890) is notable for
its fine calligraphy; No. 3002 is by far the oldest known copy of this
x GENERAL EDITOR'S PREFACE
very important text; No. 3051 is a unique copy of this most im-
portant text, in marvellous calligraphy, very ancient.
In the second category: No. 3007 is an excellent old copy of this
famous geography, the maps being especially fine; No. 3030 is a
unique copy of a very important historical work ; No. 3 1 20 is a unique
copy, in very fine calligraphy, written by the author himself; Nos.
3 121 and 3155 are unique copies in the autograph of the author.
In the third category (besides those last mentioned) ; No. 3016. is
a unique autograph copy of a work upon a very unusual subject;
No. 3023 is possibly in the autograph of the famous author Ibn al-
Athir; No. 3059 is apparently the autograph of the very famous
author al-Nawawi; No. 3060 is the autograph of the famous author
Ibn Qaiyim al-Shibllya; the copy is unique; Nos. 3994 and 3 112
are autographs of the famous authors al-Qastallanl, and the Shl'ite
Muhammad Baqir; Nos. 3 139 and 3 151 are also celebrated authors'
autographs, No. 3 1 5 1 being unique; Nos. 3 1 57, 3 1 69, 3 1 82, 3 1 96,
3210, 321 1, 3216, 3222, 3226, and 3227 are likewise all auto-
graphs, while among their writers, those of Nos. 3 1 69, 3 1 82, and
3 196 were famous scholars and authors; Nos. 3 120, 3226, and 3227
are unique.
