370 pp., Arabic text, edited with footnotes by Muhammad Amin al-Khanaji, modern hard back, paper slightly browned, few ink annotations in margins, first & last leaf foxed, few wormholes on the first few pages, occasional foxing. Published 1320 A. H./ 1902. Al-Askari is described by many biographers as a scholar of high standing, whose circle was attended by many eminent scholars who sought to read under him. He wrote a large number of books, most of which have either been lost or exist only in manuscript. If this book tells us something, it?s about the breadth of Al-Askari?s linguistic knowledge. As a scholar of the fourth century of the Islamic era, Al-Askari was encyclopedic in his knowledge. #35307.
