Muhammad ibn Sulayman al-Jazuli (d. 1465), Levant, 17th or 18th century

The text consists of a collection of prayers for the Prophet Muhammad, a description of his tomb, lists of his names and honorary epithets, and a host of other devotional material for use by Sunni Muslims. It has seen many printed editions in modern times and is used by Sufi religious orders in Egypt as the basis of their public devotions to this day. It includes two large illustrations, one (p.[31]) representing the great mosque of Mecca, the other (p. [32]) representing the mosque at Medina and the tomb of the Prophet. Marginal annotations in red ink give the day of the week on which a particular prayer should be read and indicate separation of text into ahzab (1/60ths), so that it may be read easily over two months' time.
