This is one of miniature Qurans in my collections. The size is 3.5" x 2.5" x 1.5". I acquired this Quran recently from a friend in India. This Quran originally belonged to elderly couples who live in Rajputna ( Rajastan). The Quran has 2 first pages & the last page illuminated. The colophone dated this Quran to 1268 AH ( 1852 C.E)with anonymous copyist.
