This fine manuscript, produced under the reign of Sultan Suleyman the Magnificent (r. 1520-66), follows in the tradition of imperial Ottoman manuscript production of the late 15th and early 16th centuries. Both the binding and the illumination at the beginning of the manuscript bear close resemblance to those of a Qur’an copied by Shaykh Hamdullah and dated 14 Safar AH 905/14 September 1499 AD (Julian Raby and Zeren Tanindi, Turkish Bookbinding in the 15th Century, London 1993, no.41, pp.208-13).
