Sharjah 24: His Highness Sheikh Dr. Sultan bin Mohammad Al Qasimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Sharjah, has made a generous donation to the Manuscripts House, contributing three rare books and an original manuscript. With this addition, the total collection at the House now exceeds 1,500 unique volumes.

Saeed Al-Maadawi, the General Supervisor of the Manuscripts House , shared details about the new items. Among them is a special manuscript called "Sharh Mukhtasar Khalil al-Saghir," which focuses on Maliki jurisprudence—a school of Islamic legal thought. This was written by Muhammad bin Abdullah bin Ali Al-Kharashi. 

The first of the three rare books is "Al-Bahjah fi Sharh al-Tuhafa," which explains another text on Maliki jurisprudence and was printed in Fez, Morocco. The second book is an explanation of a work by Mohammed bin Abi Al-Qasim, which also addresses Maliki jurisprudence. The final book provides insights into logic and was similarly printed in Morocco. 

Al-Maadawi, during an interview with “Sharjah 24,” emphasized that these new additions will be beneficial for students both within the UAE and around the world.
