Some of them, including Van Ronkel, Winstedt, Braginsky, and, especially, Brakel, have paid particular attention to the structure and content of the story. These scholars have all suggested that this hikayat was copied from an unidentified Persian manuscript and that the Malay version includes some sections not found in the Persian one. In this study, several manuscript copies of a Persian text, preserved in various libraries around the world, are examined in order to investigate whether this text could be the original source of the Malay version of the Hikayat Muhammad Hanafiyyah. In order to follow up on and test some previous scholarly conclusions, this study highlights the similarities and differences between both the content and the structure of the Malay and Persian versions on the basis of Brakel’s edition of the text. Nombreux sont les chercheurs à avoir étudié la contribution de l’Hikayat Muhammad Hanafiyyah à la littérature islamique malaise. Une partie d’entre eux, notamment Van Ronkel, Winstedt, Braginsky, et, plus spécialement, Brakel, se sont particulièrement intéressés à la structure et au contenu de l’histoire. Tous ces chercheurs ont suggéré que cet hikayat a été copié d’un manuscrit persan non identifié et que la version malaise comprend des passages ne figurant pas dans le texte persan. Dans cette étude, plusieurs copies manuscrites d’un texte persan, conservées dans diverses bibliothèques du monde entier, sont examinées afin de voir si ce texte pourrait être la source originelle du Hikayat Muhammad Hanafiyyah. Afin de poursuivre et de tester certaines conclusions savantes antérieures, cette étude met en lumière les similitudes et les différences entre le contenu et la structure des versions malaise et persane sur la base de l’édition du texte réalisée par Brakel.
