Description

Top of a legal declaration drawn up in Fustat in the middle of Iyyar 15[..], under the authority of the Avraham Maimonides. One of the parties is Hibatallāh. Most of the document is missing and it is unclear if Avraham is listed with the title "Nagid" (post-1213) so the potential date range is 1205–1237 CE.
