Description

Letter from Abū l-Riḍā to his brother Shelomo. In Judaeo-Arabic with the address in Arabic script. Dating: likely late 12th or 13th century. Asking for urgent help with "ghathth al-bayt" (a problem of his wife? or actual house?). On verso he adds that he only wrote this letter while 'sick in the brain' (muta'allim al-dimāgh). Information in part from Goitein's notes.
