Text page from a Mirror of Holiness (Mir’at al-quds) of Father Jerome Xavier

The image shows an open book with yellowed pages. The pages are filled with black text written in a non-Latin script, likely Arabic or Persian. The text is arranged in lines within a blue border. The book appears old and worn, with visible signs of aging such as discoloration, stains, and torn edges. The pages are bound together with a thin strip of material, possibly leather or fabric, that runs along the spine. The background of the image is a plain beige color. The text at the top of the page appears to be a title or heading, while the rest of the text is written in a smaller font. The overall appearance of the book suggests that it is a rare or historical manuscript. The image does not show the cover of the book. The right page is partially visible.
