B 286. Size 9^3/4 in. by 6 in.; foll. 335. Twenty-seven lines in a page.

Annotations on the latter portion of Baiḍâwî’s Commentary (from Sû. 11), by MULLA CHALABβ (i.e. Sa’d-allah b. ‘Îsa, commonly called Sa’d Chalabî, d. A. H. 945). See Ḥ. Kh. i. 477; De Jong, Catal. Codd. Acad. 160.

The beginning of the present copy is wanting. It commences with the 12^th sheet (جزء), at Sû. 19, 10: ویجوز ان یکون الکاف; and concludes قال المولف وقع الاختتام بعون الملک المهیمن العلام.

Additional notes of the author on the margin.

Neatly written. Coloured lines round each page. Much injured by insects.

Described by mistake as glosses on the Kashshâf by Mulla Jalâl al-dîn. Cf. Catal. p. 221, i. 10.

² Thus the author is called in the inscriptions of the single sheets.
