  2. [2] [1306] fol. 1r - 26v

    An instruction book on prayers, their performance and times. The author is not mentioned. Fol.3r2-4 refers to Siraj al-Din al-Bulqini سراج الدين البلقيني (died 805/1403; cf. GAL II 93; S II 114), called Shaykh al-Islam شيخ الإسلام and to his son qadi al-qudat Alam al-Din قاضي القضاة علم الدين , called shaykhuna شيخنا . This means that the author was a contemporary of Alam al-Din (died 868/1463 see GAL II 96 nr. 32) and must have lived in the 9th/15th century.

    Arba'un hadithan min al-sihah wa-al-hisan أربعون حديثا من الصحاح والحسان . No author is mentioned. On fol. 28v a different hand has added qad farragha min tastir hadha al-kitab ahwaj khalq Allah al-malik al-wahhab ila rahmat al-aziz al-hakim al-tawwab al-Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Muhammad al-shahir bi-Ibn al-Bayluni al-Shafi'i al-madhhab al-ahmadi al-mashrab قد فرغ من تسطير هذا الكتاب أحوج خلق الله الملك الوهاب إلى رحمتي العزيز الحكيم التواب الشيخ محمد بن محمد الشهير بابن البيلوني الشافعي المذهب الأحمد المشرب . The author mentioned here, Ibn al-Bayluni, cannot be identical with Muhammad Fath Allah Ibn Mahmud Ibn Muhammad al-Halabi al-Bayluni محمد فتح الله بن محمود بن محمد الحلبي البيلوني (977-1042/1570-1632 GAL II 274; S II 385), because the ms. was written in 977/1569 (see above). Furthermore, the bio-bibliographical sources on al-Halabi al-Bayluni (see also KAHHALE VIII 53; XI 117; XIII 410) do not refer to any work on Arba'un hadithan.
