Remarks

The diminutive form 'wurayqat' (small leaves/papers) is used (p. 430) to refer to the material substrate used for issuing an 'ijaza' (scholarly license). In the context of 18th-century Bulaq and Cairo, this likely refers to local or imported Venetian paper common in the Ottoman period, though the specific fiber source is not identified in the text.
