The first page was copied in the Royal Library, possibly of Shah 'Abbas II (1052-77/1642-66) by Muhammad Shafi' al-Husayni who is referred to by the most famous shikasteh scribe 'Abd al-Majid, as his master.

The others were copied by Murtaza Quli Shamlu, two in the Capital Isfahan dated 1056 (AD 1646-7) and 29 Sha'ban 1056 (10 October 1646) and another two dated 1057 (AD 1647-8) and 5 Sha'ban 1057 (2 December 1647).
