Our manuscript includes the Khamsas of Nizami and Amir Khusraw. The shamsa at the beginning contains the titles of the chapters of the Khamsas of both authors. The main text block contains the Khamsa of Nizami and the margins the text of the Khamsa of Amir Khusraw. The manuscript is complete, although in two places misbound, including the last page of the original manuscript which is numbered [3]17 and has been placed between f. 262 and f. 263. Since the marginal text containing Amir Khusraw’s works is longer than Nizami’s, the blanks in the main text of the original manuscript were filled with ghazals and other poems of Amir Khusraw, probably in India in the eighteenth century. An illuminated heading was added as well as further pages.

Colophons for the following sections contain dates:
- Makhzan al-Asrar of Nizami, completed on Monday the middle of Sha‘ban AH 926/July 1520 AD
- Matla‘ al-Anwar of Amir Khusraw, completed on Thursday middle of Ramadan AH 926/August 1520 AD
- A’ina-yi Iskandari of Amir Khusraw, completed 1 Rabi‘ al-Awwal AH 927/9 February 1521 AD
- Sharafnama of Nizami, completed on 1 Sha‘ban AH 927/7 July 1521 AD by Lufullah al-Husayni
- Hasht Bihisht of Amir Khusraw, completed by Lutfullah bin Hasan Ma‘ad al-Husayni on 16 Jumada al-Akhar AH 932/30 March 1526 AD
