MANUSCRIPTS DIVISION

The manuscript collection is the most distinguishing feature of M.A. Library. The division houses quite a few hundred and are very rare and invaluable. The oldest manuscript is a fragment of Holy Quran which is about 1400 years old. It is believed to be scribed by Hazrat Ali himself on parchment in Kufi script. A copy of Nahj al-Balagha, the collections of aphorisms and utterances of Hazrat Ali is also preserved. 

Another rare manuscript is the Halnama of Bayazid Ansari, the spiritual leader of Raushania Movement. There are several farmans (Royal decrees) of the Mughal rulers like Babur, Akbar, Shahjahan, Aurangzeb and Shah Alam. Painting of Red Tulip, masterpiece of Mansur, the famous court painter of Jahagir and Sanskrit works translated into Persian are also preserved in the this division. Of these, the Persian translations of 'Bhagwadgita' by Abul Faiz Faizi and Dara Shikoh's translation of Upnishads entitled Sirr-e-Akbar are worth mentioning. Other possessions includes Telugu and Malayalam manuscripts written on palm leaves. Among other items are the manuscripts bearing notes in famous poet Faizi on the manuscript of Tarikh-e-Gazida. Manuscripts in the writing of Mughal Queens and Princesses like Jahan Ara and Jina Begum are also found here.
