Summary

Side 1 (Recto): Qur'an 18,47 (45) (beginning of line 6) - 49 (47). Traces of another line. Side 2 (Verso): Qur'an 18,51 (49) (end of line 5) - 55 (53) (traces of two other lines.)

Notes

• White, thin parchment. Almost the full length and the full width are preserved but the upper side is badly damaged: the first 6 lines (as well as parts of lines 7-9) are entirely destroyed, and only the margins remain. The lower part is also damaged.
   
• Script reminiscent of nos. 10-13 in the Chicago Collection and no. 21 in the Vatican Library. Diacritical marks used. Kufic characters. Parallel strokes mark verse divisions. (S.L. Skoss)
   
• Identifier(s): upenn.apis.109.
