Arabic translation request
 
9 Attachment(s)
Hello.Not a weapon, but an interesting old manuscript roll which is 7 mts long full with very small lines of Arabic writing and hand painted,bordered with gold decoration-"tezhip" at both edges of the roll. A holy Quran of a special kind or a prayer book or what? I request help in understanding what it is.

regards

Hello Erlikhan,

This is a Quran but it looks to be written unproffessionally. There are numerous scribal/grammar errors.

I will show it to a proffessional and get back to you.

A.Alnakkas thank you very much, i will look forward for the comments.

Hello Erlikhan,

Bad news; I contacted the expert (he specialize in collecting old manuscripts) and he told me that this Quran is a fake :(

He said that the Illumination is 100% fake, The writing is also recent.

Good day every body
since 2 to 3 years (may be more ?) I noticed in Istanbul Grand Bazaar,
many replicas (most coming from India or Pakistan) sold as antiquities ... :eek:
with the prices of old artifacts ... :rolleyes:
