Description
English: This illuminated folio continues the beginning of Nizami's "Iqbalnamah" (The Book of Progress), the second of two sections in the author's last book (kitab), the "Iskandarnamah" (the Book of Alexander the Great), of his "Khamsah" (Quintet). It follows the first two illuminated folios of the book (see 1-84-154.1b R & V) and provides multiple praises (subhan) of the Creator, as well as a eulogy on Muhammad, the Lord of the Messengers (dar na't-i Sayyad al-Mursilin). It is typical for Nizami to introduce every one of his five books with introductory praises of God and His Prophet before launching into a narrative.
