Or Ms 69: دبستان مذاهب Dabistān-i maẕāhib, 1215 A.H., 1800 C.E.
An exposition of the religious creeds and philosophical systems of the East. The author's name does not appear, but the work is probably attributable to Mubād-Shāh, who completed it shortly after 1063 A.H. (1653 C.E.). Comprising fifteen sections with numerous subsections, it gives a fair insight into the beliefs of the Parsis, Hindus, Buddhists, Jews, Christians, Muslims, Muwaḥḥids (unitarians), Philosophers, Sufis (theosophists), and several others.

A treatise giving the Muslim side in a controversy with the Christian Geronimo Xavier, and in vindication of Islam. It was compiled, according to numerous quatrains at the end, each line of which forms a chronogram, in 1031 A.H. (1621 C.E.), by Sayyid Aḥmad b. Zayn al-‘Ābidīn al-‘Alawī al-‘Āmilī.
