The scribe 'Abdullah who copied this manuscript may be the same scribe as 'Abdullah bin Murshid al-Din Shirazi who copied another copy of Amir Shahi's Divan, now in the National Library in Tehran. He was called from Shiraz by Shah Tahmasp and made his private scribe. He died in Qazvin in 982 (AD 1574-5) (Mehdi Bayani, ahval va asar-e khosh-nevisan, vol. 2, Teheran, 1346 sh., pp. 356-7).
