Schwarzman Building and online, the exhibition includes an 18th-century illuminated manuscript of Dalā’il al-khayrāt, one of the most popular collections of prayers and invocations for the Prophet Muhammad in Arabic across the Muslim world, as well as a 19th-century miniature leaf-shaped Qur’an, among other highlights.
