- Scope & Content:

A Chagatai translation of the Ḍiyaʿ al-Qulūb, by Muḥammad ʿIvaḍ, a hagiography of Khoja Isḥaq Vali b. Makhdum-i Aʿẓam, under the title of Kitāb-i Tazkira-’i Ḥażrat-i Eshān. The author was inspired by reading the Rasa'il of Mawlana Lutfullah Çusti (died (979 AH / 1571-72 CE) and by a dream in which he beheld Hazrat-i Eşan, whose name was Khwāja Isḥāq, which took place on 4 Muharram 1012 AH (1603-04 CE), to write these anecdotes.
Folios 181 and 182 contain text in a considerably more cramped and slanted hand than the rest of the text, much of which is in the form of couplets or marginalia.
f. 183 is a separate text in a different hand and different ink from the rest of the text. It contains considerable repetition of religious formulae and might consist of the text of a dua.
