This rare and important Arabic manuscript presents a scholarly commentary on financial and mathematical principles, authored by Omar bin Ahmed Al-Maiee, a notable figure from Khorfakkan (UAE). The work, titled Sharh Khulasat al-Hisab (“Explanation of the Summary of Accounts”).
The manuscript is bound in a marbled-paper cover in rich blue tones, reinforced with red leather corners and spine. The opening folio includes a beautifully laid-out title page in black and red ink, naming the author and text with poetic flourishes and dedications.
