al-Sullam al-munawraq

Rajaz poem of 144 lines (143 in some counts; Brockelmann and a Leipzig record say 94) in 17 headed sections, composed at the beginning of Muḥarram 941/July 1534 when the author was 21, as the closing lines state. Manuscripts listed by Brockelmann include Berlin 5191, Gotha 1198–1201, British Museum and Algiers; WAAMD notes 20 copies in one West African survey; a copy dated Muḥarram 1231/December 1815 is at the Surau Simaung, Sijunjung (West Sumatra, DREAMSEA), and four copies at Dayah Tanoh Abee, Aceh (Fanani). The spelling munawraq/murawnaq varies by region.
