Description

Letter to the sender’s mother, in Cairo (yaṣil ilā maḥrūsat al-qāhira). In Judaeo-Arabic, with the address in Arabic script. Not a great deal of the content is preserved. Reports that Abū l-[...] arrived. Interestingly, the "ve-shalom" at the end is in a cruder hand than the skilled hand of the letter itself (maybe a clue that it was written by a scribe).
