التعريف بمخطوطات خزانة زاوية أسرة السعيد ابن أبي داود، و فهرسة نماذج منها

Abstract EN

This study attempts to define Al-Said Ibn Abi Dawed Family's Zawiya and its manuscripts, which goes back to the 12th century AH (18 AD) in the Zwawa region, particularly Bejaia, Akbou district.

It was one of the most important educational zawiyas in it, known for its teaching of Maliki jurisprudence, which spread from it to Constantine in the east, Medea in the west, and Laghouat in the south.

It was also known for its bookcase, which contained a large number of manuscripts that were characterized by the diversity of its subjects through including various sciences and arts.

We find manuscripts in Sufism, asceticism, speech science, literature, jurisprudence, history, monotheism, interpretation, Hadith, arithmetic, astronomy, and other subjects.

Another feature is that it was not confined to the local cultural and scientific production of the region, but covered all Arab-Islamic heritage, as evidenced by the existence of manuscripts in various sciences and arts belonging to all parts of the world.

This is thanks to the interest of its sheikhs in science, education, copying, delivery, writing, and collection.

To make these manuscripts more known, we have indexed models of them according to the following action plan: the title of the manuscript, the name of the author, the subject, the beginning of the manuscript, the end of the manuscript, the name of the copier, the date and place of the copy, the type and color of the font, the number of papers, the ruler, the scale, the state of the manuscript, and notes about the manuscript.
