Royal Asiatic Society (MS P.337): Difference between revisions

The majority of the manuscript is made up of the Jawami ul-Hikayat, an early 13th century collection of mirabilia (aja'ib) by Muhammad Awfi, who likely knew Zahiri al Samarqandi personally, and who, in his other notable work, the Lubab ul-Albab, provides much of the testimonia we have concerning Zahiri al Samarqandi and the broader Persian tradition. This text was considerably more popular than the Sindbadnameh, with 111 manuscripts surviving, and enjoyed great esteem in both Islamicate courts and among European orientalists.
