Evidence

"It was printed in 1922 on poor paper which crumbled to powder in time."

Remarks

A specific instance of material failure is noted regarding a 1922 printed version of Infakul Maisuri. The paper quality is described as 'poor', leading to extreme brittleness and the material crumbling to powder (p. 178). This highlights the preservation challenges of modern printed materials compared to older manuscript traditions in the region.
