Law: Ḥanafite. This manuscript is now IO Islamic 567 in the India Office collections. [metadata: Otto Loth, A Catalogue of the Arabic Manuscripts in the Library of the India Office, (volume 1), no. 271 here with further notations and hyperlinks]. 271. 567. Size 111/2 in. by 71/4 in.; foll. 224. Twenty-five lines in a page. Two fragments of the الفتاوی البزّازیّة, or Collection of Legal Decisions, by (Ḥâfîẓ al-dîn) Muḥammad b. Muḥammad Kardarî, commonly called IBN AL-BAZZÂZÎ (d. A.H. 827). It is also called الجامع الوجیز, and was composed in A.H. 812. See Ḥ. Kh. ii. 49 and iv. 367; Flügel, Hdss, Wien, iii. 243; and Aumer, Hdss. Münch. 105. The first fragment (foll. 2-151), which is very well written, contains the beginning of the work, viz. the spiritual law, besides the following books, النکاح, الطلاق, الایمان, and العتاق, in which it ends abruptly. The first lead is mutilated. The second fragment (foll. 153-224) begins with کتاب الدعوی, and breaks off abruptly in the following book, کتاب الاقرار. It is written in a larger and more cursive hand than the first portion. Fol. 1 contains the beginning of an index of contents, in a different hand. [Johnson.]
