Description

Fatimid state document with an ʿalāma (al-ḥamdu lil-lāh ka-mā huwa ahluhu). Many text blocks, many hands. On one side, l. 4 mentions al-Imām al-Mustanṣir Billāh (i.e., the caliph). Another text block on the same side mentions Hiba b. Isrāʾīl and the date Dhū l-Ḥijja 430 AH, which is August/September 1039 CE. Needs further examination.
