The ijaza with the blue border was presented to al-Sayyid Hafiz Mehmed Khayri, known as Vahdi and is authorised in a panel in the lower right hand corner by al-Da'i Haqqi and in the left hand corner by al-Da'i Fakhri. The text in the main panels is the bismallah followed by a Prophetic hadith.

The ijaza with the green border was given to Ibrahim Sidqi, a pupil of 'Ali al-Wasfi. It is signed in a panel on the bottom right by al-Sayyid Muhammad al-Khulusi and on the left by Sayyid Mustafa Rasikh, a pupil of Ibrahim al-Shawqi. The text in the main panels is again the bismallah followed by a Prophetic hadith.
