Handlist of Arabic Manuscripts Acquired Since 1912: v.1

This text contains an up-to-date list of the published catalogues on Islamic law contained in the British Library collection. Entries are classified throughout by subject and date, and a pragmatic approach has been adopted for the formal entries which are supplemented by first lines quoted in Arabic script and references to bindings and other special features. Each volume in the series is fully indexed in both Arabic script and romanization by author and title. This series is intended to be of use to researchers concerned with the study of the Quranic sciences, Hadith and Sharia, or indeed of Islamic codicology in general.
