François Déroche schreibt zum Fragment KFQ 45 (Déroche,  The Abbasid Tradition, London 1992, S. 65): „17 / Single folio / Second half oft he 9th century AD or early 10th / 20.4x30.8cm, with 15 lines to the page / Material Parchment; the recto is the hair side / Text area 15.3x23.8cm / Script Style C.III / Accession no. KFQ45 / The text – Sūrat al-jāthiyah (XLV), verse 37, to Sūrat al-aḥqāf (XLVI), verse 10 – is written in black ink; the diacritical dots were added later. Red dots indicate the vocalization. Three thin strokes (I.I.I) mark the end of every verse. At the beginning of Sūrat al-aḥqāf, the title and the verse count of the surah, preceded by the word Fātiḥāh, are written in gold. They are set within a frame at the far right of a decorative band made up of six interlacing oval rings; the vignettes at either end are step vases from which a complex floration emerges. The colours (yellow, green and red), motifs and outline of this decoration are close to those of a Qur’an folio in Sanʿaʾ (von Bothmer 1987, p.187, fig.9), but the script is quite different."
