Bāb yudhkaru fīhi al-ḥukm ʻalá al-khusūf al-qamar fī jihat lawnihi fī wasaṭ al-kusūf باب يذكر فيه الحكم على خسوف القمر في جهة لونه في وسط الكسوف
- Scope & Content:
-
A short chapter divided into three parts on making judgements based on lunar eclipses. The final word of the title كسوف ('solar eclipse') is almost certainly an error for خسوف ('lunar eclipse').
This text is numbered 14 (يد) in the present collection.
Contents:
- Section discussing of its colours in the middle of the time of the lunar eclipse (فصل في ذكر ألوانه في وسط زمان الخسوف, ff. 150v-151r);
- Its [i.e., the Moon's] applications to the planets after it leaves the lunar eclipse (اتصاله بالكواكب بعد خروجه من الخسوف, ff. 151r-152r);
- Its [i.e., the Moon's] indications in the signs (دلالاته في البروج, ff. 152r-153v).
Begins (f. 150, lines 9-12):
إن كان أسود شديد السواد يدل على ظلم كثير
ورياح عاصفة وأهوال في الجو وأمرض يابسة وموت
في الدوات (!) والمواشي ووقوع الجوع الشديد ومخاوف
وأفزاع ومكاره شديدة ...
Ends (f. 153v, lines 11-13)
... ودلالات خسوف القمر في
البيوت الاثنى عشر كدلالات
كسوف الشمس في ذلك
