The languages are Persian, Avestan and Arabic.+F3The second part of the volume consists of a mathnawi of the Persian poet Attar (ca. 1145-1220 AD). This part of the manuscript was evidently not useful for ceremonies. Perhaps it was chosen and included in this volume as a personal interest of the owner. All the verses are in black ink.The first part of the manuscript consists of several prayers read during different ceremonies. The text is in black, while the titles of the chapters and some commentary notes are in red ink.Furthermore, there is a very short text written obliquely in the left margin of page (folio 32) about travelling. This text contains several Arabic words.
