This article first describes manuscript collections in the former ISTAC, the International Institute of Islamic Thought and Civilisation in Kuala Lumpur. These are mostly Middle-Eastern collections that were commercially acquired in the 1980s and 1990s. They have been described briefly in a number of catalogues that are little known outside the ISTAC. The present article also discusses some earlier provenances of the manuscripts.A number of the ISTAC manuscripts have been described here in detail. Some of these are illustrated copies of the prayerbook Dalāʾil al-Khayrāt by al-Ǧazūlī from a variety of origins: the Maghrib, the Mashriq and India (one of which has a remarkable iconography), but the article also treats several other texts; more specifically, a collection of texts on the phenomenon of the Isnād, with a number of readers’ notes, Iǧāzāt and transmission certificates. A short note on an as yet little-known manuscript of Firdawsī’s Shāhnāma concludes these travel notes.

吉隆坡的ISTAC前图书馆及其伊斯兰手抄本。游记

本文首先介绍了前ISTAC（吉隆坡国际伊斯兰思想和文明研究所）的手稿收藏。这些大部分是中东收藏，在1980年代和1990年代被商业收购。在ISTAC之外鲜为人知的许多目录中已对它们进行了简要描述。本文还讨论了手稿的一些早期出处。此处已详细描述了许多ISTAC手稿。这些插图中有一些插图是al-Ǧazūlī的祈祷书Dalāʾilal-Khayrāt的复本，其出处各异：马格里布（Maghrib），马什里格（Mashriq）和印度（其中一个有着非凡的肖像画），但该文章还涉及其他几种文本。更具体地说，是关于伊斯纳德现象的一系列文字，其中包含许多读者的注释，Iǧāzāt和传输证书。在这些旅行笔记的结尾，简要介绍了Firdawsī的《Shāhnāma》的一本鲜为人知的手稿。
