Editing Chester Beatty Library (section)

===Islamic Collections===
The Islamic Collection is divided between the [[Arabic]], [[Persia]]n, [[Turkic peoples|Turkish]], [[Qur'an]] and Mughal-Era Indian Collections. The Arabic texts include treatises on religion, history, jurisprudence, medicine, geography, mathematics, astronomy and linguistics. Some of the finest miniatures from imperial Mughal albums, called ''[[Muraqqa']]'', are housed in the Chester Beatty Library, with important paintings from the ''Late Shah Jahan Album'' and the ''Minto Album''. The albums were the subject of an exhibition and publication by the Islamic curator, Dr Elaine Wright, ''Muraqqa': Imperial Albums of the Chester Beatty Library''. Often on display is the ''Ibn al-Bawwab'' Qur'an, copied by one of the greatest medieval Islamic calligraphers.
