Abstract
This manuscript is a copy of a work originally written in Arabic, and now translated into Yoruba Anjemi. The Yoruba Anjemi version has no cover page, and thereby no author name, publisher name, and date. The manuscript offers essential guidelines for students – which can be roughly translated as "Educational Etiquette", and covers a range of themes, including the attitudes required for a student to be successful, his/her relationships with his/her mentors, fellow students, and his/her required attitude towards learning. The manuscript was written with a modern pen, using the Mashriqi writing style, but with special features such as Egypt pattern and diacritics.
