Abstract :
During the Islamic history, devoting the manuscripts of the Holy Quran, Holy Bukhari, Dalail al Khairat to a mosque, madrasah, dervish lodge by the sultans, viziers, eminent bureaucrats, wealthy people and princesses continued as a tradition. Today, the hand-written manuscripts of the Quran have been placed by the printed copies. The manuscript of the Quran, handwritten by Islamic calligrapher Dervish Hüseyin bin Mehmed under the patronage of Kerime Hatun, the daughter of Hacı Mehmed as being devoted to Kastamonu Kadı Nasrullah Mosque was completed in the year 1127/1715 according to its record of faragh. Dervish Hüseyin, one of the pupils of Hafiz Mehmed Kevkeb, who is the pupil of Hafiz Osman, has a considerably beautiful naskh calligraphy as a follower of the school of Hafiz Osman. The style of the structure of characters together with vowel points and decorative signs follow the style of Hafiz Osman, the master of his master. This unilluminated, leather bound manuscript of the Quran has been reached up to date without much disturbance.
