Origin: 919 H [1513 or 1514], by Muḥammad Amīn ibn Sayyid Muḥammad Tāshkandī [leaf 321b]. The date appears to have been added by a different hand, but judging from the paper the manuscript appears to be from the 16th century. The original text was completed in 909 H [1503 or 1504], according to the two chronograms on leaf 321b.
