Yarsani kalam notebook (274 pp., copied ca. 1386 SH / 2007 CE)_– Sample of 15 pages.
This file contains 15 sample pages from a contemporary Yarsani manuscript notebook held in private collection in Sulaimani, Kurdistan Region of Iraq. The complete notebook comprises 274 handwritten pages of kalams (sacred hymns). The samples focus on the titles and opening lines of individual kalams.
The colophon indicates a copying date of winter 1386 Solar Hijri (ca. 2007–2008 CE). The manuscript is significant because Yarsani communities continue the living tradition of hand-copying kalams, and textual variants often reflect political pressures of different periods – scribes historically adapted wording for self-protection. This contemporary copy therefore provides a crucial baseline for comparing modern recensions with older manuscripts (19th–early 20th c.) held in libraries such as the Ministry of Awqaf Central Library.
