Dāneš-nāma-ye Qadar Khan (Book of Knowledge dedicated to Qadar Khan), compiled in the Indian Peninsula by Ašrāf b. Šaraf Moḏakker Fārūḡī during the ninth century Hijrah, is a Persian dictionary that contains citations for its entries from poems. After a brief preface, the author lists the names of the months, days, and festivals of ancient Iran. In the following 22 chapters, the dictionary provides over 2,000 entries listed alphabetically according to the final entry letter. It also includes a list of some medicines and medical terms. The volume is especially valued for its unprecedented entries and citations not found in other works despite such sporadic errors observed throughout the work as miswritten forms, incorrect entry senses, repetitions of entries in two chapters, incongruence in entry definitions, corrupt or distorted examples, incorrect poet names, or attribution of poems to wrong poets. There seems to exist a sole and unique handwritten manuscript of the volume at the Institute of Manuscripts of Azerbaijan, Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences.
