Arabic manuscripts and lithographs in the Sudan Archive
Introduction
Collection title: Arabic manuscripts and lithographs in the Sudan Archive
Reference code: GB-0033-SAD
Dates of creation: 1897-1989
Extent: ca. 400 items
Repository: Durham University Library, Archives and Special Collections
Language of material: Arabic
Contents
This small group of Arabic manuscripts and lithographs belongs almost entirely to the
nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Some of the items concern trivial matters, others
are incidental to a parallel, and much larger correspondence in English. The remainder
includes the most important group of Sudanese Mahdist documents outside the archives
of the Ministry of the Interior in Khartoum and in private hands in the Sudan.
The papers of Sa`id Pasha Shoucair (Shuqayr) contain documents concerning the finances
of the Sudan (1909-34) and of Palestine and Syria (1918-20). All items not described as
lithographs are manuscripts.
The secretarial practice of the Mahdist government
The lithographic press together with all imported stationery in the administrative offices of
the Egyptian government in Khartoum were captured by the Mahdists on the fall of the
capital on 26 January 1885. Enough stationery was seized to serve the needs of the Mahdist
government until its fall in 1898 though it is possible that small supplies were imported
through merchants at Aswan and Suakin. During the siege of Khartoum General Gordon
had a series of currency notes (items Nos. 100-101) lithographed on the press of which the
succeeding Mahdist government performed the whole of its lithographic work. The Mahdists
first operated the press in its original room in the hukumdariya in Khartoum but transferred
it during the months of Sha`ban and Ramadan 1304 (April-June 1887) to the new Mahdist
capital of Omdurman.
The organization of the Mahdist press (al-matba `at al-mahdiya)
See Sudan Intelligence Report No.60, 25 May - 31 December 1898, p.56.
For a list of books lithographed on the press, see ibid., p.63.
Towards the close of the regime the organisation was as follows:-Controller
Mukhtar Mahmud Badai, a Dunqulawi
Chief printer
Muhammad Zuhni, a muwalled
Copyist
Hasan Salab Salih b. al-Husanyni
Corrector
`Umar al-Azhari, a muwalled
Chief bookbinder
al-Jak al-Suyuff, said to have been an Egyptian
Of the calligraphers of the regime three were held in high repute: `Abd al-Ghani al Salawi,
a Turk; Muhammad al-Amin, who came from the west and wrote in sakrawi hand, a variant
of the maghrabi; Ibrahim Muhammad b. `Abd Allah al-Dalil, of lesser repute, and Hasan
Salab Salih b. al-Husayni, universally considered the finest of them all, who reduced the
lost 2nd impression of the Mahdi's ratib (see footnote at no. 274a below) to lithography.
The clerks of the Khalifa `Abd Allahi's central government maintained a centralized letter
book. As it was kept up to date it contained documents in their final form. From this letter
book all the documents in the various collections of letters were copied. By contrast,
2

collections of letters copied from the provincial letter books to a large extent represent the
original form of the documents.
Accession details
Most of the Arabic manuscripts and lithographs were collected by Sir Rudolf Baron Slatin
and General Sir Reginald Wingate. The Slatin papers were deposited with the School of
Oriental Studies in January 1961 by the Pasha's daughter, Mrs. Arthur Ponsonby; the
Wingate papers were presented in April 1958 by the General's son, Sir Ronald Wingate.
The latter gift excluded some Mahdist letter books and other documents originally part of
the Wingate papers but which had been sold shortly after General Wingate's death in 1953.
These were purchased in February 1960 mainly through the generosity of former officials
of the Sudan Government, and returned to the body of the Wingate papers. A further,
smaller, collection of Mahdist documents from the Wingate papers was purchased by the
University of Durham from a private owner in November 1961.
Arrangement
Material is within the Sudan Archive.
