Qur'ão - Herat - Timúrida - AD1460. Este é uma folha de manuscrito de um Alcorão copiado pouco depois do reinado de Shah Rukh, em uma época de grande turbulência política. Era relativamente pequeno para facilitar o transporte, portanto muito provavelmente para uso privado.

Contém 13 linhas de escritura do Capítulo Medinense 3, Al-Imran (A Família de Imran) v.31-37, que introduz a história de Maryam (Maria) e o voto de sua mãe, uma seção bem conhecida após o relato de Adão, Noé e a família de Abraão/Imran. Especificamente, esses versículos descrevem o caminho verdadeiro de amar a Deus através de seguir o Profeta, e a transição para a história de Mary (Maria) e de sua família.

A folha contém 14 linhas de script naskh elegantemente espaçadas, em preto, em uma mão caligráfica bem-educada. Diversas 

Qur'an - Herat - Timurid - AD1460.  This is a manuscript leaf from a Koran scribed shortly after Shah Rukh’s reign at a time of great political turmoil. It was relatively small for ease of carriage, thus was most likely for private use. 

It contains 13 lines of scripture from the Medinian Chapter 3, Al-Imran (The Family of Imran) v.31-37, which introduces the story of Maryam (Mary) and her mother's vow, a well known section after the account of Adam, Noah and the family of Abraham/Imran. Specifically these verses outline the true path of loving God through following the Prophet, and transition into the story of Mary (Maryam) and her family. 

The leaf contains 14 lines of evenly spaced and elegant naskh script in black ink and in an educated calligraphic hand. Multiple free-hand 'aya' in a simple gold spiral mark out the verses . A blue marginal on the left marks the 35th verse. 
There is some devotional use staining bottom right through page turning, but otherwise this is a good clean copy and well preserved for its age dating from around the time of the fall of Constantinople to Islam in 1453.
