Evidence

"The manuscript’s paper has the ‘1818’ watermarked."

Remarks

The manuscript contains the text al-Muqaddima by al-Sanūsī. The presence of the 1818 watermark provides a crucial terminus post quem for the production of the manuscript, situating it in the mid-19th century (p. 110). This physical characteristic aligns with the mentioned death dates of associated scholars such as al-Ḥājj Sālim Kassama (p. 110, 112).
