****************************** ****

The Qur'an can be divided into thirty even parts, or Juz', so that one section may be read on each day of the month. Thirty-volume Qur'an sets were produced, and these folios are from the final volume, Juz' 30. The angular script with emphatic slim verticals is sometimes referred to as 'eastern Kufic', although Sheila Blair has proposed (after Whelan) that 'broken cursive' is a better term. Different versions of this script type were used in Iran from the tenth to the thirteenth centuries. The distinctive script was used in secular con****s in the mid-tenth and eleventh centuries, in Samanid ceramics, as well as appearing in eleventh- and twelfth-century Qur'an manuscripts.
