Description

Letter addressed to Rabbenu Yiṣḥaq ha-Rav ha-Gadol, in Fustat. This is probably Yiṣḥaq b. Shemuel ha-Sefaradi. With the address both in Judaeo-Arabic and in Arabic script (where he is called merely 'mawlāy al-Rāb'). The sender's name appears but is difficult to read - maybe Abū Saʿīd b. Ibrāhīm al-[...](?). Only the top of the letter itself and the address on the back are preserved.
