Anis Al-Hujjaj
Illustration from the Anis Al-Hujjaj
- ... that a 17th-century illustrated manuscript of the Anis Al-Hujjaj shows pilgrims sailing from the Indian subcontinent to Arabia (pictured)? Source: "The 17th-century guide of Anis al-hujjaj (The Pilgrim’s Companion) by Safi ibn Vali has some impressive images of pilgrim ships (c. 1677–80); one of which depicts vessels setting off from the city of Surat. [...] it is not clear which month or year Safi ibn Vali set off on board Salamat Ras from Surat to Jedda;" Agius (2013)
- Reviewed: Special motion to strike
- Comment: An alternative image also showing the pilgrim ships is File:Khalili Collection Hajj and Arts of Pilgrimage mss-1025-2b.jpg, also used in the article
Moved to mainspace by MartinPoulter (talk). Self-nominated at 15:02, 1 June 2021 (UTC).
New enough (moved from userspace on 1 June), plenty long enough (4198 characters), and within policy (copvio check is fine, and there are lots of good citations!). Hook is interesting, and I'd recommend to the posting admin to use the picture. QPQ is done. Looks good to go. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 17:16, 6 June 2021 (UTC)
