Summary note

Short biographies of the great Muslim Imāms and the four orthodox caliphs. It contains the lives of Abū Ḥanīfah [699-767], Mālik ibn Anas [713-795], al-Shāfiʻī [767-820] and Aḥmad ibn Ḥanbal [780-855], after which occurs a section on the love of God followed by one on the virtues of the four orthodox caliphs. This is followed by a section on the asceticism of Abū ʻAbd Allāh al-Ḥusayn al-Ḥākī, one on the excellences of ʻĀshūrāʼ, one on the birth of the Prophet, one on prayer and a section on the death of the Prophet. Following the colophon, further chapters are added on the Nile, saints, and in eulogy of the Prophet, apparently in the same hand.
