(I) (ff 5v-21r) : Anka-yı Maşrik, a Hurufi work in mixed prose and verse ;

(II) (ff 22r-78v) : Divan-i Haşim Baba, defective at the beginning and the end. There are missing folios after ff 32 and 38. There are tahmisat by Naksi (ff 33v-34v) and Niyazi-i Mısri (ff 34v-35r) on verses by Haşim (who is sometimes called Haşimi) ;

(III) (ff 79r-88v) : A number of short Sufi tracts, all composed in 1173 AH (1759-60 CE), the first of which is defective. The titles of the tracts are as follows: Tecelli-i ufk-i mevalid-i selase-i suret-i maneviye; Meslek el-mukarribin; Etvar el-Melamiyun ve eserr ül-İlahiyun; Mebda-i sırr el masun ve netice-i hayr ül-kurun; Nur ul-bedr; and Sırr-i Leyletü'l-Kadır. The text breaks off in the middle of this last text.

The manuscript was likely copied in the 19th century CE.
