Bemerkung:
First edition of this very rare study of Indian Muslim customs, manners, social habits and religious rites. At the request of the British-Indian surgeon Gerhard Andreas Herklots (1790-1834), the work was composed in his native Dakhini by the "liberal-minded" Ja'far Sharif and then translated by the editor. Subsequently published under title "Islam in India, or, The Qanun-i-Islam; the customs of the Musalmans of India". - Extremities very slightly rubbed and bumped. Occasional brownstaining, otherwise in good condition. Provenance: engr. bookplate of George R. Elliot on front pastedown; later in the library of the Indian-born surgeon Charles Marsh Beadnell (1872-1947; his ownership on flyleaf). - OCLC 5152176.
