Summary of Contents: قواعد علیشیری A commentary on some difficult verses in the First Part of the Sikandar-náma
of Nizámí, by Muhyi'd-Din ibn Nizám, a disciple of Sayyid Ashraf Jahangir
(as-Simnání). See Rieu's Persian Catalogue, p. 859, and Sprenger's Oudh
Catalogue, p. 522. Begins: سپاس بی قیاس مردایران دارای) کونین را که میزان اشعار نامدار در لسان دربار شعرا تعبیر فرمود The author, who studied Persian poetry under Shaykh Muhammad Lál and
Shaykh Muhaddith, composed the present work in 956/1549 and gave it the title
of Qawa'id-i-Al-Shiri in honour of his patron Naşiru'd-Din 'Ali-Shir. Rieu
(loc. cit.) calls it Fawa'id-i- Al-Shiri, but this seems to be a mistake. Ff. 182 of 22 x 13 c. and 17 ll. Excellent nasta'liq with rubrications. Dated
1086/1675.
