- [. . .] let your “house” (i.e., wife) and the “house” (wife) of the beadle Sulaymān collect
- –3. from the women. In addition, you alone should make the collection. Exert yourself in this. Whatever is
- obt[ained] from everyone, keep with you until we inform you
- what to do. We know about this matter
- only from you. Do not make it necessary for us to reprove you.
- Beware of being disobedient. May God the ex(alted) be
- your succor, and may you be inscribed in the book of [lif]e, the book
- of remembrance. And peace.
