This volume contains the autobiography of the Moghul Emperor Jahangir, translated into Ottoman Turkish by Küçük Çelebizade İsmail Asım (died 1760 CE) for Sultan Mustafa III (1757-73 CE). The text contains a single illuminated unvan. The current manuscript was copied by Haşmet İbn-i Mehmet Salim el-Üsküdari and is undated, although it was likely completed in the 18th century CE.
