Description

Letter in Judaeo-Arabic. Addressed to Fusṭāṭ, al-Muṣāṣa, the shop of Abū l-Thanāʾ the wine merchant (al-sharābī), to be delivered to Abū Naṣr known as Sabīkh (?) al-Sharābī. There is also a second address on verso: "to al-Rashīd to give it to his friend/partner." The sender is informing the addressee about items (ʿulayqāt, ḥuwayjāt) that he previously sent with Abū l-Riḍā. He asks for confirmation of receipt. "If I'd known they'd be delayed so long, I wouldn't have sent them." (Information in part from CUDL)
