Another Commentary (ممزوج) on the تلخيص المفتاح , by Ibrâhîm b. Muḥammad b. ׳Arabshâh ISFARÂ’INÎ ( ‘Iṣâm al-dîn, d. A.H. 943). It is commonly called الاطول , on account of its being even larger than Taftâzânî’s المطوّل . Cf. Ḥ. Kh. ii. 410.

Plainly written by several hands. A lacuna after fol. 271 is indicated by two blank leaves. Some portions are much injured by insects, and the end is in a ruinous condition.
