About this Item

Title

  • Commentary on Ibn Malik's "Tashīl al-fawā'id".

Summary

  • This Arabic manuscript contains the commentary by Muḥammad Ibn Abī Bakr al-Damāmīnī (circa 1362--1424) on the Tashīl al-fawā'id (Simplification of the facts), a grammatical work of the famous Abū ʻAbd Allāh Djamāl Al-Dīn Muhammad, known as Ibn Malik (circa 1204--74). The manuscript is written in a tight Naskh hand and the wide margins have numerous annotations. The codex appears to have been used by Eli Smith (1801--57), an American missionary and one of the Protestant translators of the Bible into Arabic, who worked in Beirut in the early to mid-19th century. Ibn Malik was a Spanish-born Arab grammarian, who spent much of his life in present-day Syria and is best known for his Khulāsa al-alfiyya, also seen simply as Alfiya, a versified Arabic grammar primer that was the subject of many commentaries.
