  2. [2] [1576] fol. 1r - 2v

    A fragment of a historical work, dealing with two contemporaries of the prophet, Sa'id Ibn al-As سعيد بن العاص and Shaddad Ibn Aws شداد بن أوس . On both see ZIRIKLI, al-A'lam III (Beirut 1969) 148 and 232. - Fol.1r refers to the Ta'rikh Dimashq تأريخ دمشق by Ibn Asakir ابن عساكر (died 571/1176); therefore the author of our text must have written after the 6th/12th century.
