			Part IV, Chapter XVIII = XCIII: On Monuments and remarkable Buildings.
			Introduction dealing with antiquities and monuments as the best proof of the civilization of the times. The well-known couplet is cited in the original Arabic: “These are our works which prove what we have done; Look, therefore, at our works when we are gone”. The author’s visit to Samarqand and the inscription written on the edifice erected by the Ṣadr-i-Jahán ‘Abdu’l-‘Azíz [Burhánu’d-Dín], the head of the Ál-i-Burhán, and one of the notables of Bukhárá who lived about 574 A. H., in the caligraphy of the learned Kargas.
f71a- f71b	ff340	1977	An account of “The Iram of the Columns”, historically the old Damascus (see Le Strange’s Palestine under the Moslems p. 232), and traditionally the Paradise of Shaddád and the Iramu Dhátu’l-‘Imád mentioned in the Qur’án.

f72b	”	1979	The wondrous tower built by Dhu’l-Qarnayn (see, for the identity of Dhu’l-Qarnayn, the opinion of al-Bírúní, B. A. B. pp. 36—42) at the port of Alexandria, for watching the movements of ships: 300 knots or rope-lengths in height, one solid block of stone, square at the bottom and octagonal in shape, surmounted by a refractive mirror, which is said to have permitted the observation of ships at sea at a distance of one month’s voyage, and which was also used as an effective means of destroying hostile ships by burning them through radiation. Later, the tower having fallen into the hands of ‘Amr b. al-‘Áṣ during the Muslim conquest of Egypt, the monks maliciously advised him to search for the hidden treasures of Dhu’l-Qarnayn which lay beneath the glass dome; when it was opened for this purpose, it could not be restored properly, and since then it lost its magical powers. Our author says that it existed and attracted visitors in his time. (But Yáqút, a contemporary, in his Mu‘jamu’l-Buldán, Vol. I, pp. 261—2, has given a very interesting criticism on this tower, and has proved by personal observation that the exaggerated accounts of it incorporated in most works of geography are false. al-Qazwíní is content to describe it, and says nothing by way of criticism. See Q. A. B. pp. 97—8).

(The Ta’ríkh-i-Dawlat-i-Yamíní of Abú Naṣr [‘Utbí] as the source. See above, p. 63). Cf. also Muqaddasí Aḥsanu’t-Taqásím p. 303, who mentions a town Shiyán in the district of Askimasht, where there was a wondrous spring. (Shiyán is situated near Farwán, in Kábul).

”	”	2007	An account of the confiscation of the property of BukhtYishú‘, and his execution. He possessed a stone which he kept in a casket. His slave points out to the Caliph al-Mutawakkil its curious property of removing the hair, and also mallciously advises him to renew its chemical properties, yearly, by putting it in blood, upon which the stone became useless (Cf. Q. A. M. p. 235, who mentions a stone called “Láqiṭu’sh-Sha‘r”, and quotes Aristotle).
”	”	2008	An autobiographical account of the stay of the Author at the court of the Sultan Nuṣratu’d-Dín ‘Uthmán b. Ibráhím b. Ḥusayn, the Ílak Khán of Turkistán who ruled in Samarqand between 600 and 609 A. H. An explanation of the verse of the poet Manṣùr-i-Manṭiqí, concerning the allusion of the poet to the special effect of joy and exhilaration produced on a Persian in the land of Tibet. When the prince asked what the allusion meant, the Author, having studied a work on the chemical properties of natural objects composed by his maternal uncle, Majdu’d-Dín Muḥammad b. Ziyá’u’d-Dín ‘Adnán as-Surkhakatí, the court-physician of the prince’s father, explained it, by describing the effect of a species of magnetic stone, called the “Ḥajaru’l-Báhit” (Q. A. M. pp. 211—2), found in Tibet, which excites laughter in foreigners. After this the Author was much favoured by the prince and patronised at the court. (The Khawáṣṣ-i-Ashyá is mentioned in this connection; see above, p. 67). A similar instance of an explanation of a verse (of the Qur’án) in a literary talk at the court of the same prince is mentioned by the Author in the Lubáb, Part I, pp. 44—5.

CHAPTER VII.

RE-CLASSIFICATION OF THE CONTENTS OF THE JAWÁMI‘U’L-ḤIKÁYÁT

(pp. 263-270).

AN ACCOUNT OF THE RE-CLASSIFICATION OF THE CONTENTS OF THE JAWÁMI‘U’L-ḤIKÁYÁT.

The original plan of the author, of dividing the whole work into four parts and subdividing each into 25 chapters, is accurately indicated in the Comparative Index of the 100 chapters; but the difficulty arises in the arrangement of anecdotes, which in the original scheme of the author is very unsatisfactory. The author’s only concern was, as appears from the general survey of the chapters, to illustrate each chapter with the anecdotes of various personalities, periods, subjects, which are more or less loosely connected with the chapter-heading. There are indications that the author himself realised the inconsistency of his own arrangement, although he has taken care to begin each chapter with a short introduction on the subject and close it with a panegyric, which serves as a garland for his patron. There being no definite aim to exhaust the available material on a chosen subject or to illustrate its various aspects systematically, but only to incorporate detached accounts and stray anecdotes in this encyclopaedic collection, the need for a systematic re-classification arises.

In the accompanying index an attempt is made to indicate briefly the actual nature of the anecdotes analysed in the complete Table of Contents, to bring together anecdotes illustrating a particular subject, and to afford an opportunity of surveying the existing material on a particular subject, scattered over the 2113 units of this collection. This re-classification is a horizontal division as compared with that of the author, and will perhaps serve as a tentative historical, though not chronologically arranged, subject-index to the whole work. The contents of the hundred chapters are comprised in ten main categories, which are further divided into tangible units. The first six categories precisely indicate the historical material which is classified and elucidated. The seventh category is very general, and as most of the anecdotes in the section of Ethics are historical, they are recorded in their proper places in sections V and VI. The remaining categories show at a glance the principal topics of discussion and the number of anecdotes relating to each topic.

In the words of Dr. R. A. Nicholson, the present writer “has made a systematic analysis and classification of the contents of the above book (Jawámi‘u’l-Ḥikáyát), thus enabling students for the first time not only to see exactly what is there, but also readily to find any subject in which they may be interested”.

There are nearly 43 anecdotes of the Barmecides, from the first accredited appearance of Barmak in the court of ‘Abdu’l-Malik to the last order of Hárún for the extermination of the Barmecides; but these are spread over the hundred chapters.

Pt. III,	anec.	1649.

(A. f196a, Pt. I, ch. xiv, anec. 787 is important, as it shows the early relations of the Sámánids with the Buwayhíds and brings in important personalities like the Ṣáḥib Ismá‘íl b. ‘Abbád and Abu’l-Ḥasan b. ‘Ísá, the famous Wazírs of both the dynasties).

8. The Ghaznawids. 962—1186 A. D.

There are nearly 81 anecdotes about this dynasty. Some of them are taken from the Ta’ríkh-i-Náṣirí of Abu’l-Fadhl al-Bayhaqí, relating to the latter portion of the work, which is supposed to be lost; while others are borrowed from the Yamíní of al-‘Utbí. Another work, the Dastúru’l-Wuzará’, is also mentioned as a source. The history of this dynasty is well represented in the Jawámi‘ as is evident from the number of anecdotes.

Pt. I,	anecs.	349; 353; 385; 388; 398; 405; 406; 407; 409; 415; 419; 493; 494; 520; 522; 544; 549, 611; 612; 622; 627; 629; 632; 634; 639; 702; 704; 729; 730; 732; 733; 759; 782; 799; 895; 912; 982; 996; 997; 998; 1016; 1017; 1066; 1069; 1070; 1072; 1124; 1125; 1172; 1175; 1176.

9. The Great Saljúqs. 1037—1157 A. D.

There are nearly 23 anecdotes, but the sources are not acknowledged. Some of these can profitably be added to the information already existing about this dynasty in the accounts of al-Bundárí, ar-Ráwandí and the Niẓámu’l-Mulk respectively.

Pt. I,	anecs.	350; 352; 354; 393; 396; 521; 558; 744; 745; 746; 759; 775; 954; 991; 1003; 1018; 1019.
Pt. II,	anecs.	1204; 1364; 1427; 1538.

(Nos. 10, 11, 12 in this division are not properly represented, and of the very few anecdotes which illustrate the history of these dynasties some are not easily identifiable. No. 10 concerning the Atábaks contains only two anecdotes. One of these (I, ix, 489) relates to Atábak-i-Zangí, but it is not clear whether ‘Imádu’d-Dín Zangí of Aleppo is meant or Núru’d-Dín Zangí of Syria or ‘Imádu’d-Dín Zangí of Sinjár; and the other is that of Atábak Dakla (?). In No. 11 there are only six anecdotes: Pt. I, 553—555 about Tukush b. Íl Arslán Khwárazmsháh, one of which (555) is also given in the Lubáb, Pt. I, pp. 40—1; and 727 and 728 about ‘Alá’u’d-Dín Muḥammad Khwárazmsháh. No. 12 consists of the earliest accounts of the rulers of Ghúr, e. g. Mu‘izzu’d-Dín, Ghiyáthu’d-Dín Muḥammad b. Sám, the Ghúrid brothers.

13. The Sultans of Dihlí. Pt. I, 362; 490; 492.

There are very few anecdotes of contemporary interest. al-‘Awfí could have given us valuable information on his own period, but he is silent. One anecdote of Quṭbu’d-Dín Aybak (602—607 A. D.) Pt. I, ch. ix, 490, and two or three anecdotes of Iltutmish are recorded incidentally, e. g., Pt. III, ch. xviii, Anecs. 1720, 1729.

Pt. IV, chs. i and ii, are also important for ascertaining the position of state officials under absolute rulers. Most chapters exhibit the peculiar traits of various rulers and illustrate to some extent the history of the political institutions that existed in the East, from the days of Núshírwán, the Just, to the last of the ‘Abbásid Caliphs, in various Islamic states and under various Muḥammadan dynasties.

APPENDIX

As this book has been in course of publication since 1925 and fresh information has accumulated about different points, the present writer intends here to give in brief a chronological account of the hitherto unexamined MSS. of the Jawámi‘ which he has met with in Vienna, Constantinople, and Ḥaydarábád (Deccan) and a few others in the catalogues of the Hamburg and Bankipore libraries.

The Núr 2 or [Núr-i-‘Uthmániyya 3273, Constantinople]⁾ abridged and supplemented version of the Jawámi‘ by Muḥammad b. As‘ad b. ‘Abdu’llah al-Ḥanafí at-Tustarí, who lived in the reign of Sultan Uljáytú, 1305—16 A.D.

Folios 311; size 34 by 22 cm., 27 lines per page; dated 723 A. H. = 1323 A. D.; margins and rubrications; collations and occasional marginal notes, probably a contemporary MS.; bold, beautiful, clear Naskh; archaic spellings, but no Dháls for Dáls; bears seals of Sultan ‘Uthmán Khán (III^rd, ruled 1168—1171 A.H.) b. Sultan Muṣṭafa Khán and was given up to the Núr-i-‘Uthmániyya Library, inaugurated in 1169 A. H.; contents, abridged text: Pt. I begins on f4a and ends on f163a; Pt. II ff163a=218b; Pt. III ff218b—265b; Pt. IV ff265b—311a; colophon dated 723 A. H.

A close examination of all the available abridgements of the Jawámi‘, amongst which this one is very important, shows clearly that from the beginning of the 8^th century A. H. or the 14^th A. D. a gradual process of short recension, complete abridgement, revision, supplementing, redaction and plagiarism was going on. The earliest instance of slight abridgement is B⁾ dated 717 A. H. Then comes this MS. which is a thoroughly abridged, revised and supplemented edition by Muḥammad b. As‘ad, dated 723 A. H. This MS. gives an interesting clue and helps in the identification of other MSS. e. g. F⁾, J⁾, the Áṣafiyyah MS. [Qisaṣ, Fársí 129] and the Hamburg codex, [Orient. 191 (CCXLVII)]. All these have been copied out with slight alterations from Muḥammad b. As‘ad’s version in different places and in different epochs. One thing is certain, that the huge bulk of the original work was always felt tiresome by the readers of the Jawámi‘ and that they preferred to have it reduced to a portable size. But no excuse can be accepted from unscrupulous redactors like Majdu’d-Dín⁾.

Folios Núr 1 or [Núr-i-‘Uthmániyya 3272] 344; size 35 ȕ 26.5 cm; 33 lines per page; dated 964 A. H. but transcribed much earlier; frontispiece, rubrications; archaic spellings; beautiful clear Naskh; a few folios are missing after f142b, and a lacuna occurs at Pt. I, xiv, Anec. 786—xvii, Anec. 977. Contents: Pt. I, ff1b—160b; Pt. II, ff160b—222a; Pt. III, ff223b—282a; Pt. IV, ff282b—344a with a colophon dated 964 A. H. = 1556/7 A. D. Folios 1—4 in the beginning and ff342—344 at the end are supplied by a later hand. The original transcript is of an earlier date and can be estimated to belong to the later 14^th century A. D. It does not contain the additional anecdotes found in A; but on collation with A and D it appears that the text is fairly correct and reliable. In order of textual merit it comes after A and D and is undoubtedly better than G.

This I or [Persisch 422] Vienna is also a copy of an abridgement by Muḥammad b. As‘ad and not a complete or a reliable MS as it has been described previously on p. 118.

A [Bankipore 727] full description of this MS. is given in the catalogue of that Library, Vol. VIII, p. 171. It appears to be a fairly good MS.

A [Orient. 190 (ccxlv) Hamburg] full description of this MS. is given by Brockelmann in his Katalog der Orientalischen Handschriften der Stadtsbibliothek zu Hamburg, Teil I, p. 105, No 204.

Folios [Kutub-Khána-i-‘Umúmí 5021, Constantinople] about 377; 20 lines per page; undated; frontispiece, rubrications, margins; clear Nasta‘líq; bequeathed to the library by the mother of the Sultan ‘Abdu’l-Majíd Khán; white paper. Contains Pt. I chs. i—xxv only; probably belongs to the 16^th century A. D. Text is mediocre.

Abridged [Áṣafiyyah, Qiṣaṣ, Fársí 129, Ḥaydarábad, Deccan] version similar to B. Folios about 444; size 10.2 by 6.7; 21 lines per page; rubrications, margins; undated; small clear Nasta‘líq; water-stained; unpaginated; Pt. I ends in the middle of the volume, Pts. II—IV in the other half. In a short preface the name of the abridger appears as Muḥammad b. Ismá‘íl (most probably As‘ad) b. ‘Abdu’llah al-Ḥanafí at-Tustarí. The MS belongs apparently to the 16^th century. Text is poor.

Folios [Sir Sálár Jang collection No. 6881, Ḥaydarábád-Dn] 273; size 11 by 7.7 inches; 29 lines per page; undated, bears a seal of a servant of the Mughal Emperor Jahángír at the end on f273b: “Muḥammad Ṣafiyyu’d-Dín banda-i-Sháh Salím”; small clear Nasta‘líq; frontispiece on f2b, and the opposite folio contains the doxology in a small square; illumined margin, painting all round in beautiful Shíráz style; no archaic features of spelling; contains Pt. I only; belongs to the 17^th century A. D. Text is fair and helpful. The present writer is indebted to the present Nawwáb Sir Sálar Jang for his courtesy in allowing the use of the two MSS.

An [Orient. 191 (ccxlvii) Hamburg] abridged version dated 1057, probably a retranscript from Muḥammad b. As‘ad’s abridgement. See for a description Hamburg Cat. mentioned above, P. 136, No. 205.

Folios [Sir Sálár Jang Collection No. 6882, Ḥaydarábád-Dn.] 405; size 12.7 by 7.3 inches; 25 lines per page; dated 1140 A. H.; bears the seal and endorsement of the prime-minister of Ḥaydarábád, Ḥaydar Yár Khán entitled Muníru’l-Mulk Bahádur d. 1189 A. H. = 1775 A. D; illuminated frontispiece; versified colophon with a chronogram (1140) and an account of the presentation of the MS. to “Khán b. Khán Muḥammad Ismá‘íl”; bold, beautiful, clear Nasta‘líq, corrections and additions in original hand on the margin; contains Pt. I only; text mediocre.

Ṣáliḥ [Núr-i-‘Uthmániyya 3274]⁾ b. Jalál’s Turkish translation. Unpaginated; size 21 by 15 cm.; 17 lines per page; dated 1066 A. H. = 1655 A. D.; rubrications; Naskh; from the Awqáf of the Sultan ‘Uthmán Khán b. Sultan Muṣṭafá Khán (ruled 1168—1171 A.H.); contents: Pt. I, chs. i—x in one volume. The translator states that he prepared it at the request of Prince Báyazíd⁾ b. Sulaymán I in 957 A. H. = 1550 A. D. during the reign of Sulaymán and embellished his version with a few suitable verses from the Qur’án.

The [Núr-i-‘Uthmániyya 3232] same Turkish version, dated 1088 A. H. = 1677 A. D.; contains Pt. I chs. i—xi. It is not certain whether this translation was ever completed.

This story is related in J. K. H., pt. IV, pp. 146—7; cf. Zapiski, vol. VI, p. 337.
