Description

Letter fragment. In Hebrew. Calligraphically written. The subject matter is communal strife; some wicked person is stirring up trouble, and the results are government decrees (nishtavnim) and a letter in Arabic script ("the writing of the Ishamelites"). The postscript instructs the addressee to send the response with the sister of Samʿān. Information from Goitein's note card and from Marina Rustow.
