Content Abridged version in ten maqālahs of the medical canon al-Qānūn fī al-ṭibb by Abū ʽAlī al-Ḥusayn ibn ʽAbd Allāh Ibn Sīna (d. 428/1037; EI2 III/; GAL I/ S I/; GAS VI/, VII/; Ḥājjī Khalīfah IV/, no. 9354; Ziriklī II/). The text breaks off in the second faṣl of the third maqālah.
The question whether the author of the Qānūnjah is the well known astronomer Sharaf al-Dīn Maḥmūd ibn Muḥammad ibn ʽUmar al-Jaghmīnī al-Khwārizmī (EI2 II/377-37; GAL I/473 S I/865; Ziriklī VII/) or someone different as well as the question concerning his/their date of death (d. after 618/1221 or in 745/) have not been settled precisely. In Sellheim’s opinion the fact that only until the 8th/14 th century commentaries upon the Qānūnjah appeared argues for the assumption of two different persons. Besides several copies of the Qānūnjah (e.g. Ahlwardt no. 6293, Pertsch no. 1928; Loth no. ; our MS) contain neither author and title (see MAL I/, Nr. 46)
