Description

State document, in Arabic script. Probably official correspondence. The document presumably describes a conflict resolution between two state officials, where both parties will respect each other for their collective goal of serving their master "khidmat mālik al-riqq", probably a reference to the Fatimid caliph. For the use of the phrase "khidmat mālik al-riqq", see Khan, ALAD, 345, 368, 434 for meaning and other examples; and see T-S Ar. 42.162.
