Description of manuscript content:

The text deals with Arabic syntax (naḥw) and is a commentary on the Kitāb Alfīyah ibn Mālik. The text starts with kalām.

Other notes:

At the end of the start is stated that the manuscript was written by a mu’allim. The text is incomplete due to missing pages at the beginning and at the end. The text has interlinear and marginal glosses and notes, some up-side-down. The Arabic script in the text written in black ink does not use diacritics, the text written in red ink mostly does, sometimes in black ink, sometimes in red. The paper is damaged at the sides and suffers from water damage. The last pages are written in a different hand.
