Notes

1. It must be admitted that valuable time may have been lost on the
Grammar, etc., section (XIII), in which, as it transpired, most of the MSS
are already known. This time might have been devoted to the IbadI legal
MSS, by far the most important group in the collection.
2. For definitions of the IbadI technical terms wilfyah, the association
of his followers with the Imam, and bara’a/i, their dissociation from him,
cf. Ennami, ‘Description of new IbadI MSS’, JSS, XV, 79 and Wilkinson,
‘Origins of the Omani State’, The Arabian Peninsula—Society and Politics
(ed. D. Hopwood), London, 1972, 75 and ‘Background’, AS, III, 155.
Incidentally Ennami in his unpublished thesis, ‘Studies in Ibadism*,
University of Cambridge Ph.D., 1971, Chapter VI and passim, vocalises
the word wal&yah.
3. One sees a different vocalisation for this name every time one comes
across it. Here that of Ennami, himself a North African IbadI, is accepted.
Cf. his ‘Description’, JSS, 78, n. 1.
4. This is the nisbah occurring in one of the MSS. Could he be from
fcladur, the area to the west of $an‘a’ in the Yemen?
