| ABOUT MANUSCRIPT : | The manuscript Fawayid al-Insan is composed in poetic form and features the names of single Unani drugs, beginning with Afiyun Misri, Amba, Afsanteen and Utraj. It also includes compound drugs such as Qurs, Majun and Jawarish, mentioned towards the end. It took three years to compile this book. The manuscript describes the actions and uses of these drugs for various diseases in a poetic manner, enhancing its literary appeal. The title 'Fawayid al-Insan' was suggested by the Mughal emperor Akbar (1542-1605 AD) as noted in the preface and the work is dedicated to him. This combination of poetry and medicinal knowledge makes the manuscript a unique contribution to the field of Unani medicine. | ||
