Evidence
"From here up to the end of the folio, some of the flexible vowels are in red."
Remarks
The red pigment is used extensively for rubrication, including section headings (rubricated titles), separation marks, and grammatical vocalization marks such as flexible vowels (p. 74), hamza and shadda (p. 74), and fatha and sukun (p. 74). It is also noted as being used to scratch out text in the manuscript (p. 74).
