Description

Letter addressed to Abū l-Khayr Mubārak b. Faraj. In Judaeo-Arabic, with a portion of the address in Arabic script. Quite damaged. Contains a story about someone who was driven out (wa-ṭaradūh), but the details are mostly gone. There may be a request for the addressee to help that man. Regards to Ismāʿīl al-Maghribī, Mukhtār al-Zinjārī, and 'your friend' ʿImrān al-Ṣūrī (from Tyre).
