الوصف
Draft of a beginning of a report to an official, possibly a vizier, from a lower official. Beginning formula and opening honorifics are preserved. Addressed to "al-ḥaḍra al-sāmiyya al-ajalliyya," probably late Fatimid. After the unusual obeisance formula "ينهي امتثاله بين يدي الحضرة السامية", the lower official explains that he is writing in response to a decree that he had received from his addressee—or rather is requesting a decree from the addressee بتشريفه بكتابها الكريم.
