About this item

Content

Treatise on prophetic medicine (الطب النبوي) by Muḥammad al-Mahdawī ibn ‘Alī ibn Ibrāhīm al-Ṣubunrī (محمد المهدوي بن علي بن إبراهيم الصبنري, d. 1412). The author's name, which does not appear in this manuscript, is disputed and his nisba is also reported as Ṣanawbarī (صنوبري, GAL II, 189; GALS II, 252; Ullmann, Die Medizin im Islam , 188) and Ṣuburnī (صبرني, Hamarneh, Catalogue of Arabic Manuscripts on Medicine and Pharmacy at the British Library , 221). The treatise is often falsely ascribed to Jalāl al-Dīn al-Suyūṭī (جلال الدين السيوطي, d. 1505). The title is mentioned on f. 60v, line 12-13.

The treatise is followed by a note on alchemy, which cites Jābir ibn Ḥayyān (جابر بن حيان, f. 74r-v).

Begins (f. 60v, lines 2-5):

الحمد لله الذي اخترع من العدم الموجوادت وأظهر إلى الوجود

الكائنات وأبلغ في حكمة الطبائع الفاعلات وأقسام الأجسام

المؤتلفات على أربع طبائع مختلفات وقدر المنافع والمضرات

والأسقام والصحة والممات ...

Ends (f. 74r, lines 5-8):

... طمس البول يؤخذ شبت وطحين الحنطة

وضمغ عربي وسكر أحمر أجزاء سواء يدق الجميع ويغلي

بالدهن حتى يصير معجونًا وفي كل صباح ومساء يأكل

بقدر بندقة فإنه نافع مجرب والله أعلم بالصواب

Colophon Section at the end of a manuscript text. (f. 74r, lines 9-10):
