Abstract

The library of Imam Ali holy shrine in Najaf-e Ashraf has one of the richest Qur'anic and commentary collection. In this article, the author briefly talks about some of the Qur'an sections which originally belonged to this library, but in recent years and decades have been stolen due to the negligence and today are being kept with certain numbers in some of the museums of the world. To this end, he mentions three manuscripts of the Qur'an which were all written by Iranian scribes in Iranian-Kufic style during the 5th and 6th centuries.
