Description

Verso: tax receipt issued to Abū l-Ḥasan b. Wahb for his ḍamān on a dyeworks (maṣbagha) in Madīnat al-Fayyūm. Undated. The date on the receipt, 402, is the year for which the tax was paid, not the year when the document was written. Written by Mīkhāʾīl b. ʿAbd al-Masīḥ the jahbadh and registered by the Dīwān al-ʿAmal, the Dīwān al-Ishrāf, and a third office. This is one of two receipts in the Abū l-Ḥasan b. Wahb corpus with a third set of registration marks (see also JRL Gaster ar. 36, PGPID 32816). Payment made under the supervision of the qāḍī Wajīh al-Dawla Abū l-Faḍl Jaʿfar b. Ibrahīm b. Sulaymān, the appointee for guarding and protecting revenue.
