Inconnu - Manuscrit de Prière Arabe - 1900

antiquarian Arabic manuscript on paper – 19th century Description

Arabic manuscript in black ink with red rubricated highlights, comprising about 40 recto-verso pages (nearly 80 written pages).
The work is written in elegant Maghrebi or Near Eastern script, carefully arranged within ink-drawn borders.
The old brown leather binding with stamped gold features a geometric and floral Islamic-inspired decor.

The text is hand-written in black ink, some words or passages highlighted in red according to the traditional use of religious and literary manuscripts of the Muslim world. The content appears to belong to Islamic religious or devotional literature, several passages containing invocations and references to God (“Allah”), without a complete identification of the text being possible from the pages photographed alone.

A fine sample witness to the Arabic manuscript tradition of the 19th century, preserving its authentic character despite signs of use, foxing, humidity stains and minor wear to the margins and binding appropriate to its age. livret flottant
