Very old and very large handwritten manuscript page from a damaged partial Koran I purchased years ago from the Philippines. This is written on handmade Laid paper made from an indigenous Philippine tree . The language is Quranic Arabic. 18 lines per page and measuring 12.75" x 16.25". The circled characters on the edges of each page are Sura, or verse, indicators. Islamic influence was brought to the Philippines in the 14th Century by Arab trader/merchants and was adopted by a large portion of the population who were previously Animists. I don't know exactly when this was written but I know something about paper and this is very old. Will sell Worldwide except to Russia.
