Description

Fragment of a legal Islamic (fiqh) manual. The preserved text is a commentary passage on the Islamic ritual of ṭahāra and ablution. Discussions circle around whether ablution can be done with honey and arguments are established for the same from the Quran, hadīth, and a narrative from the wife of the Prophet, ʿĀʾisha. The infamous hadīth transmitter Qāḍ.ī Abū al-Faraj is also mentioned.
