Description

Popular literature. In Judaeo-Arabic. Dating: Late, perhaps 14th–16th century. This is a tale in rhymed prose, every line rhymed on "-īn" (which distinguishes it from typical sajʿ, where the rhyme changes every few lines). The story is difficult to follow, but it takes place on a boat, and somebody slaps a woman on her right cheek.
