چکیده:
A manuscript copy of the Quran in the handwriting of Mohammad Ibrahim Qomi is kept in the National Library. In addition to having artistic decorations such as illumination, inlay, headpiece, inscription, and beautiful computational and calligraphic patterns, it has another feature that makes it rare and perhaps unique, which is the scarcity of leaves. Qomi wrote this version in 94 pages and 47 leaves in a way that is easily readable, and each part of the Quran is placed in approximately one and a half leaves.
خلاصه ماشینی:
6. Marginalia: Mohammad Rashid Sharif Begdeli, the scribe of the marginalia, in some margins, including at the beginning of Surah Al-Imran after stating the virtue of reciting the Surah, asks God to grant him the success to complete writing the properties of the Surahs until the end of this manuscript (Image 9).
The headings of the Surahs, which include the name of the Surah in triangular script and red color, along with the mention of the number of verses immediately at the beginning of the Surah and at the end of the previous Surah without being placed in an armlet inscription, shows the scribe's consideration for minimizing the number of folios in the manuscript.
Although this manuscript has a beautiful and legible script and valuable decorations, and the names of the Surahs are written in golden miniatures at the top of the page, and signs for good and bad for Istikhara are also inscribed in golden miniatures at the top of the pages, and each juz is placed in approximately four folios, it does not reach the level of the Qomi Quran in terms of illumination and decorations.
Other Works of Qomi There is another Quran by Mohammad Ibrahim Qomi in the National Library which, despite its exquisiteness, has more folios than the aforementioned manuscripts and the 74-folio manuscript under consideration, reaching approximately 175 folios, and each juz is placed in more than ten pages.
