verso
- יעתדר ען וזנה אלאגרה פי כל
- שהר בחאלה מן אלאחואל פאן כמא
- יכדי ויתצדק מא יאכלה יתצדק
- מא יזנה אגרה תם אחרמנא
- באסם מן יסכן פי דאר או טבקה
- בגיר אלקימה אלדי יקולהא תלאתה
- יהוד פאי וקת אן עצא ען וזן
- מא יאמרוה בה אלמקומין כאן תחת
- אלחרם תם אחרמנא באסם
- מן יטלב מנה כתב אגארה באסם
- אלוקף ויתאבא ויכאסר ען פעל
- דלך תם אחרמנא באסם
- מן יתגאהא או יתשפע באחד
- מן אלגויים פי סכן פי אלוקף או
- פי נקץ אלאגרה ענה ען מא יקוום
- עליה וכל מן יתעדא עלי הדה
- אלחרמות יכון הו אלמסכין קד
- כאטר בנפסה ובמאלה לאן הדא
- אלחרם מא תהאון אחד בה וכאן

- (10-12) on anybody who refuses to present them or hinders (another), when the deeds of lease in the name of the waqf are requested from him, to do so. We also proclaimed the ban in the Name (of God)
- against whoever tries to evade (payment) or asks for the mediation of some
- Gentile concerning his lodging in the waqf or
- the reduction of his rent as assessed
- against him. Whoever would transgress these
- bans would himself be the loser. He would verily
