Unknown - Quran Leaf - 1575
Nr. 91485223
RARITY
A single folio from a Quran dated 1575. Large form with leaf size 31x20cm and framed scripture 23x14, with commentary and a fine illuminated verse marking Juz in the right hand margin. The leaf contains scripture from the Meccan Chapter 24, An-Nur (The Light) v.41-47, which offers guidelines to believers on how they should react to false rumour against the Prophets wife. Specifically, verses 41-47 offer parables to God's power, the need to submit to God, the miracle of rain, creation and the judgement of hypocrites.
This is a beautifully illuminated leaf. The script is a crisp nashki in black. The whole script is surrounded by multiple frame lines, with a prominent thick gold frame in the middle. A fine arabesque Juz medallion in gold and celestial blue, sitting in the right margin, marks the 45th verse of Chapter 24. Multiple 'circular aya in gold with 5 equidistant blue dots on the circumference nark the verses within the scripture. Interestingly, there are no red diacritical (devotional markings) to provide guidance to the devotee.

Thanks so much for this feedback. Yes - damned Brexit. All the fault of in-fighting in the UK Govt and a mistaken belief that a vote would make it all go away! It has caused small business and private individuals a good deal of unnecessary trouble.
