The first folio (including the title page) of Kitāb al-Fityān, a lost book by al-Jāḥiẓ. The little that is preserved here enumerates the qualities and manners of a proper fatā, a proper sāqī, and a proper nadīm. Note that the text is not entirely new. A portion appears also in Kitāb al-Bukhalā' (see Kevin Blankinship "Giggers, Greeners, Peyserts, and Palliards: Rendering Slang in al-Bukhalāʾ of al-Jāḥiẓ, p. 29"). This fragment has been edited by Regourd in her catalogue of the Arabic-script manuscripts in DK.
