    Manjaq Pasha Ibn Muhammad Ibn Manjaq Ibn Abi Bakr al-Yusfi منجق باشا بن محمد بن منجق بن أبي بكر اليوسفي : Qasida قصيدة in praise of the Emir of Damascus called al-Amir Ibn al-Amir Ibn al-Akarim wa-al-Amajid الأمير بن الأمير بن الأكارم والأماجد. Manjaq Pasha ‎‎‎‎‎‎‎ (1005-1080/1596-1669) is a well-known poet. He wrote poems in praise of the Sultan (Sultaniyat سلطانيات ) and of other notables in his time (→ GAL II 277 and S II 386; Kahhale XIII 8). The poems were collected by Fadl Allah Muhibbi فضل الله المحبي (died 1082/1671), the father of Muhammad al-Muhibbi محمد المحبي who in his Khulasa خلاصة IV pp.409-423 included an article on Manjaq Pasha ("al-Amir Manjaq الأمير منجق "). According to Zirikli (IIX 224 no.2) the edition of his poems (Damascus 1300/1301) differs from the mss. It is not clear whether the Qasida in our Ms. is included in this edition. Our Ms. was written during the lifetime of Manjaq Pasha and with great probability by himself, as can be seen from the proem of the Qasida (→ below). The preceding text by Abd al-Rahman al-Imadi عبد الرحمن العمادي (fols. 1v-38v) is written by the same hand. As Muhibbi in his above-mentioned Khulasa (IV 410,11) informs us that Manjaq Pasha was a student of Abd al-Rahman al-Imadi, we can conclude that Manjaq Pasha may have copied Abd al-Rahman al-Imadi's Hadiya هدية directly from his teacher's exemplar and added the Qasida. Beginning: ونظمت في أسلاكها درر الأحاديث القلائد مبتركا بحديث منبع بحرها تيك الفرائد وختمتها مسكا بنفخة طيب أحكام المساجد ورقمتها باسم الأمير المنجكي أبي المحامد وهو الأمير محمد باشا . Beginning of the poem: فبه محاسن شأمنا ثلث المجادل والمجالد فيها تعود بالعلا End: وخرّ للرحمن ساجد والعبد للرحمن في بدء وعند الختم حامد.
