The entire process of automated manuscript age detection has complexities that are inherent that are compounded by the not enough suitable datasets for algorithm evaluation. This paper presents a dataset of historic handwritten Arabic manuscripts created particularly to check advanced authorship and age detection algorithms. Qatar nationwide Library happens to be the source that is main of with this dataset as the staying manuscripts are available supply.

Scores of Arabic manuscripts from that age for an extensive number of topics are spread in numerous collections around the world. Many efforts were made by many contributors to protect this valuable history.
