my scanner didn't work so i took thier pictures.

Reza - aren't the anthronommoids a bit on the blasphemous side? (or is that the least of the problems we're looking at here?)

Yes, actually they are ABJAD diagrams for Iblis and other unknown demons among the Quranic Angels; as you can see the right figure carries the ABYZmal cartography of pestilence: The right hand upward, and the left hand downward (the seal of Ugallu, Pazuzu, Anzu, ...). Some figures in the book have swollen bodies, bloated bellies and confused or unknown gender. The first and the last pictures are also about summoning Jnun (packs of female Jinns): on Jnun see: http://hyperstition.abstractdynamics.org/archives/004335.html

The books are syncretic; simultaneously adoring Allah and praising Iblis and pests.

reza - is it possible for Summoning1 (1) left-img, arabic characters in the gut& throat; and, (2) right-img, arabic charcters for 4x4 & 3x3 tables.

if you copy these in arabic and english, that would be great.

is there anything in any of this (that you can discern) with the numbers 21 or 63?

these books are now reprinted and available in Tehran, near the gate of Tehran university.

>>> these books are now reprinted and available in Tehran, near the gate of Tehran university.

Esmail, yes, i have seen the books but they are not this one, the books i saw near Tehran university in my last trip (two/three weeks ago) were Kanisatan Al-Hussein (vol. 1, 2), Satar-o-Al-Oyub, and Do'aay-e Kabir which have been published around the 20s and 30s (1320-1330). i have them all; well, most of the ABJAD books look the same ;) ... however Majmao-Al-Ehzarat-e Kabir (this one) has phrases in Aramaic, it has written by an expert not someone who merely knows Arabic and Farsi; plus, those books are mainly similar to Fanditha tradition of magic in Maldive; this one however has references to Malek Tavoos (the diety worshipped by the Yezidians).

Reza - "Malek Tavoos (the diety worshipped by the Yezidians)" - haven't you promised us a post on Mesopotamian 'Mithraism'?

>>> haven't you promised us a post on Mesopotamian 'Mithraism'?

sneezing, coughing, vomiting, etc. that means i'm too sick and you shouldn't remind me of my failures ;) ... i'm planning to write a full post on Mazdaism and mesopotamian Mithraism but first let me finish that post on Salat (plus many other marginal subjects) ... am waiting for an insignificant piece of information from someone in Cairo University ... then there are almost ready posts on Women in WoT, ABJAD-e Saghir, Necromancers and Sorcerers series (chapter six), and islamic chronopolytics II. so i'm fully in the field General ;)

on my reference to Fanditha (in a previous comment):

"on my reference to Fanditha (in a previous comment)" - reza, what is the link to your previous comment. thank you.

u/c,

>>> also, weren't we (a long time ago) going to talk about the interesting yezidi script?

oh, yes, yes (sorry for this long delay) ... will discuss it in one forthcoming posts on Mazdaism and mesopotamian Mithraism.

"i'm too sick and you shouldn't remind me of my failures" - just keeping up the excited hype (treat it as a marketing ploy) ;)

well, i learned it from you ;)
