Recipe Details
Evidence
"in Maghrebi manuscripts the → vocalization was executed in colours (red, green, yellow and blue). Red was used for vowels. ... Hamzat al-qaṭʿ was marked with a red or yellow dot, and hamzat al-wasḷ with a green dot."
Remarks
Maghrebi manuscripts utilized a specific color-coding system for diacritics: red for vowels and shaddah, green for hamzat al-wasl, and red or yellow for hamzat al-qat (p. 149). Non-Qur'anic manuscripts were often polychrome, utilizing red, blue, and green for key words and section headings (p. 149).
