- بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
- ما يقول السادة الفقها ائمة الدين و هداة المسلمين و فقهم الله توفيق العارفين في قوم يهود
- ربابين لهم كبيسة من الدهور المديدة و السنين [الــــ]ـــــعديدة على السيرة و المنهاج الذى بناها بانوها
- عليه و لم تزل على منهاجها و رسومها و سننها و سرتها في قراة ما يقرا قيها و ما يصلا به في السنة
- من الايام و السبوتات و الاعياد الى الان ولها مصلى يقيم بامورها خلف سلف و جماعتهم راضون
- بذلك فتحزبوا قوم لتغيير منهاجها و ابطال سننها و ابدال صلواتها و مصادرة المصلى
- بها و ان يحدث فيها ما لم تجر به عادة و جماعتها و المصلى بها متمسكون بما هم عليه هل
- يجوز ان يغير عليهم و يحدث ما لم تجر به عادة و اضرار الرجل المصلى بها لينتقل عما هو
- عليه و هل يجوز تغيير و احداث في ايام الاسلام دامها الله و ان تقوا الذين غيروا
- ما الذى يلزمهم افتنا يرحمكم الله
Verso
- In the name of God, the merciful and compassionate.
- What do our lords, the jurisconsults, the imāms of the religion and guides of the Muslims, may God grant the success of wise men, say concerning the following.
- A community of Rabbanite Jews have a synagogue of great age that still stands after many years standing with the structure and form with which its builders built it.
- It still continues the customs, rites and traditional procedures regarding the readings and prayers throughout the year,
- on weekdays, Sabbaths and festivals. It has a prayer leader administering its affairs who has followed (the customs of) his predecessors and the corrununity is content
- with this. People (from among them) have worked in concert to change its customs, stop its traditions, alter its prayers and coerce the prayer leader,
- so that an unprecedented innovation be made, while the community and the prayer leader wish to continue the status quo. Is
- it permissible for unprecedented changes to be made to their traditions and for the prayer leader to be forced to abandon what is customary.
- Is it permissible for change and innovation to be made in the days of Islam, may God canse them to endure, even if those who effect the change are pious.
- What action should be taken with regard to them. Grant us your opinion, may God have mercy upon you.
