Islamic Manuscripts:
It refers to the Islamic heritage that is handwritten in the same way as the manuscript “Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds”. Muslims have taken great care of manuscripts as they are the only way to preserve the production of the mind from science and letters.

Where there are approximately one hundred and twenty-four thousand rare manuscripts in the Turkish city of Istanbul alone, Most of them have never been studied before, This is in contrast to what is found in Egypt, Morocco, Tunisia, India, Iran and other museums and libraries around the world.
