Note
Translation of: Badhl al-māʻūn fī faḍl al-ṭāʻūn; "In general, we relied on Aḥmad ʻIṣām ʻAbd al-Qādir al-Kātib's 1991 Arabic edition of this text. Al-Kātib consulted several early manuscript versions of the text at libraries in Aleppo, Damascus, and Istanbul--including one from the Sulaymaniyah library that was dated to the summer of 1448, just months before Ibn Ḥajar's death."--Galley.
