Abstract:
This research study focuses on studying three unpublished copies of "Dala'il al-Khayrat" manuscript covers that currently preserve in the Egyptian National Library, dating to 13th-14th century AH/19th-20th century AD, and preserved with inventory no. Talaat Sufism 693-1098 and Khalil Agha Sufism 31.
