Description: This is the second volume of the work described in [Glaser] 182. This volume deals with sūra 2, 239 to 4, 26. As is apparent from information on f.72v, the complete work is made up of twenty جزء; of which ff.1-72 of the volume is the fourth; the whole work, therefore, must have numbered around 1500 folios. With each volume comprised of 250 folios (as is indeed the case), the whole number of volumes would have to be six.
