Extract from Kitāb al-Ghayth al-musjam fī sharḥ Lāmīyat al-ʿAjam (كتاب الغيث المسجم في شرح لامية العجم)
Ṣafadī, Khalīl ibn Aybak صفدي، خليل بن أيبك
- Scope & Content:
-
An extract concerning the life and alchemical writings of Muʾayyad al-Dīn abū Ismāʿīl al-Ḥusayn ibn ʿAlī al-Ṭughrāʾī (d. 515 AH/AD 1121) from Ṣalāḥ al-Dīn Khalīl ibn Aybak al-Ṣafadī’s (ca 1297-1363) Kitāb al-Ghayth al-musjam fī sharḥ Lāmīyat al-ʿAjam.
This text has ben copied in a much smaller hand than the rest of the texts in the volume, but palaeographic similarities, especially a distinctive هـ (e.g. compare the first word of fol. 14a, line 10 [هو] with the second word of fol. 14a, line 1 [هي]) show that it was.
Begins (f. 14r, lines 8-11):
قال الشيخ الفاضل العلامة الصفدي رحمه الله في كتابه الشرح على لامية العجم
في ترجمة الطغرائي ومولده ووفاته وسائر أحواله في أوائل الكتاب
هو العميد مؤيّد الدين فخر الكتاب أبو إسمعيل الحسين بن علي بن محمد بن عبد الصمد الإصبهاني المنشي
المعروف بالطغرائي ...
Ends (f. 14r, lines 2-3 in left-hand margin):
لولا التَقِيَّةُ كنتُ أُظْهِرُ مَعَجِزًا ° مِنْ حِكمَتي تَشفى القلُوبُ من العَمَا ° أَهْوَى التكَرُّمَ والتظاَهُرَ بالّذي ° عَلّمتُه والعَقْلُ يَنْهى عنهُما °
وأُرِيدُ لَا أَلقى غَبِيًّا مُوسِرًا ° في العالمين ولا لَبيبًا مُعْدِمًا ° والناسُ إمَّا ظالمٌ أَو جَاهِلٌ ° فمتى أطيقُ تَكرُّمًا وتكَلُّمًا °
