The witnesses are Hilāl b. Bū ʿAlī and Bū Saʿd b. Sālim. There is a validation—stating that the witnesses are trustworthy elders of the Jews—written in the hand of the Nagid David I Maimonides, who signs his name "Dāʾūd the son of the ḥākim Ibrāhīm b. Mūsā, Head of the Jews (Rayyis al-Yahūd)." (Information from Khan.)
