Images 0010 and 0011 refer to two handwritten pages in Bengali. This is a description of the Al Quran. The description tells that Munshi Kazi Enayetullah Sahib, a village scribe from Churulia, transcribed this Quran Sharif, though it is uncertain whether he worked from memory or used a reference text. Assuming he completed it at the age of 40, the document is more than a century old. Around 1964-1965, Kazi Abu Sayeed had it rebound and donated it to the village mosque in Churulia. Enayetullah was a respected Islamic scholar from the village of Churulia. Kazi Mazahar Hossain, nephew of the poet Kazi Nazrul Islam, learned this directly from Kazi Abu Sayeed during their meeting at the Nazrul Academy Reading Room on October 3, 1980. By then, the document had been donated to the Academy for preservation by Kazi Shamshuzzaha Sahib, the mosque's imam. Subsequently, it came to Kazi Nazrul University for digitisation. Image 0034 consists of a bamboo stylus length 4.3cm that was used to write the red-colored text-marks in the Al-Quran.
