About this item
- Content
Part Two (الجزء الثاني) of a multi-volume work on materia medica by Abū Bakr Ḥāmid ibn Samajūn (أبو بكر حامد بن سمجون, fl. ca 1000). The work, also known as the Compendium of Statements of the Ancient and Modern Physicians and Philosophers on Simple Drugs (الجامع لأقوال القدماء والمتحدثين من الأطباء والمتفلسفين في الأدوية المفردة), is arranged alphabetically following the ancient Semitic abjad order. This volume contains the sections on letters zāy to lām .
- Letter Zāy (حرف الزاي, ff. 1v- 47v);
- Letter Ḥā’ (حرف الحاء, ff. 47v-114r);
- Letter Ṭā’ (حرف الطاء, ff. 114v-137v);
- Letter Yā’ (حرف الياء, ff. 137v-150v);
- Letter Kāf (حرف الكاف, ff. 150v-186r);
- Letter Lām (حرف اللام, ff. 186r-201r).
At the head of the title page (f. 1r), a reader has mistakenly added the title The Book of What Cannot be Ignored by the Physician (كتاب ما لا يسع الطبيب جهله), which belongs to a later treatise on materia medica by Yūsuf ibn Ismā‘īl ibn Ilyās al-Khūwaīyī al-Baghdādī al-Kutubī (يوسف بن إسماعيل بن إلياس الخويي البغدادي الكتبي, d. 1353).
Begins (f. 1v, lines 1-5):

حرف الزاي زنجبيل قال أبو حنيفة الدينوري الزنجبيل
مما ينبت بالشام العرب في أرض عمان وهو عروق تسري في الأرض وليس (؟) تشجر
وأخبرني من رآه قال نباته نبات الرأس وهم يأكلونه رطبًا كما يأكلون الناس
البقل ...
Ends (f. 201r, lines 2-5):
وأما النوع الآخر المتحد من حل الهاور من النحاس الأحمر
ودستجه ببول الصبيان الذي يسحق وهو حار فهو أشد
يبسًا وأشد لطافة وأقل بكاية من الجراحات الحادثة من
الـ[...] الوجع
