Summary of Contents: من خطب أمير المؤمنين على بن أبي طالب A volume, lacking 16 ff. at the beginning and an unknown number at the end, containing, apparently, extracts from the addresses and homilies of the Imam 'Ali ibn Abi Talib with running Persian translation and commentary. It begins abruptly on what is now f. 1a (= f. 17): .... سخت (۲) ملاحظه مشابهت است بينهما در علو وكون وعلياهن سقفًا محفوظا و زبرین آنرا گردانید سقف نگاه داشته از استراق سمع شیاطین از اخبار غیب را از ابن عباس منقولست که قبل ازین شیاطین محجوب نبودند از سموات بلکه متصاعد میشدند و از ملائکه که اخبار لوح محفوظ را درس مینمودند سخنان میربودند و بزمین آمده با دوستان خود از کاهنان میگفتند در زمانی كه حضرت عيسى على نبينا وعليه السّلام متولد شد ممنوع شدند از جمیع آسمانها و بجهت رجم ایشان شهب ثاقب مقرر شد This MS. was given to me at Kirmán in the summer of 1888. It comprises about 276 ff. (numbered 17-288, 290 and a final leaf of which the number is illegible. except the last figure, 5) of 25'5 x 12'7 c. and 21 ll.; neat ta'liq, the Arabic in a larger naskh hand and overlined with red.
