al-Arab min Ghayth al-adab. - Ṣafadī, Khalīl ibn Aybak, approximately 1297-1363; Ṭughrāʼī, al-Ḥusayn ibn ʻAlī, 1061 or 1062-1121?; Ṣafadī, Khalīl ibn Aybak, approximately 1297-1363.; Bāʻūnīyah, ʻĀʼishah bint Yūsuf, -1516 or 1517 (1645)
Abridgement of the author's commentary on al-Ṭughrāʼī's Lāmīyat al-ʻAjam. The commentary is variously known as Ghayth al-musjam fī sharḥ Lāmīyat al-ʻAjam and Ghayth al-adab alladhī insajama fī sharḥ Lāmīyat al-ʻAjam. Brockelmann has misidentified the abridger of the present text as the person who financed the 1897 edition. In this copy the abridgement is ascribed to ʻĀʼishah bint Yūsuf al-Bāʻūnīyah by a later hand on leaf 1b. Verses on leaves 1a, 21b-23a.
