Draft report containing two taqbīl and narratio (inhāʾ) sections. The first section mentions local residents impeding access with stones. Reporting on two matters: (1) that a group of dhimmīs has established a rotation in which they take stones daily and fill in the lake (buḥayra) or canal (baḥr) of "the chain" (al-silsila) in order to prevent "the ships of the enemy, may god forsake them" (marākib al-ʿaduww khadalahū allāh) from approaching. This expression is usually used in reference to Frankish crusading attacks. (2) That on Saturday the 7th of Ṣafar a group of Byzantine traders approached the Majlis al-Ḥarb requesting some kind of commercial privilege (may mention shūḥ = pine trees). (Information mainly from Tamer el-Leithy, Marina Rustow, and Stephanie Luescher.) Reused for Targum Onqelos of Numbers 28:26-31
