Amulette composée par Al-Buni
No prior complete English translation of this text has been found.
Ahmad al-Buni is a prolific author of esoteric texts, and while his major work 'Shams al-Ma'arif' has seen recent partial translations (e.g., 'Sun of Knowledge'), the specific text provided, a 'hijab' (talismanic incantation) for preventing epilepsy and other afflictions, is a short, practical magical treatise. Extensive searches across major library catalogs and academic databases yielded no evidence of an English translation for this specific manuscript text. It is common for such individual talismanic texts to remain untranslated in their entirety.
