Something went wrong!
Hang in there while we get back on track
A commentary on Bānat Suʻād, a panegyrical poem about the Prophet by Kaʻb ibn Zuhayr. (The titlepage and Hitti (see ref. below) attribute the work to ʻIzz al-Dīn ʻAbd al-ʻAzīz ibn ʻAlī al-Zamzamī (d. 1568)). This was apparently a part of a larger ms, which, according to the title on fol. 2a consisted of two books ("kitābayn"), the first containing this work, and the second a dīwan by Abū ʻAbd Allāh Muḥammad al-Sūdī, known as al-Hādī.
Collections
Part of
Princeton’s Holdings of the al-Madani Library
The Houtsma and Littmann Collections constitute Princeton's holdings of the al-Madani library and are the focus of an ongoing three year digitization initiative that commenced in the Fall of 2021 and was completed in 2024.
Part of
Manuscripts of the Islamic World
Manuscripts of the Islamic World offers a curated selection of extraordinary manuscripts hosted or held by Princeton University Library. The manuscripts are predominantly in Arabic, but there are also many in Persian and Ottoman Turkish. The manuscript digitizations here are a fraction of the full Manuscripts of the Islamic World collections, housed in Special Collections in Princeton's Firestone Library. Efforts are ongoing to make the manuscripts of these collections more accessible through conservation, catalog record updates, and digitization.
