Tālib Huchan
Tālib Huchan - Scope & Content:
-
This volume contains a text on Sufi theology, written by Golām Huchan in 1549 CE. The acquired manuscript was copied by an anonymous person much later. It is one of the earliest texts written in Sylhét Nāgri script and shows how Sufi literature was introduced into the Śilcar region.
The manuscript as we have it is fragmented. The front and end pages are missing from the volume. This digital copy has been made from a photocopy. The main text runs from pages 12-368, and this is all that has been copied. It measures 200mm x 12.3mm.
