State document: T-S Ar.38.108

Description

Letter, possibly state correspondence, in Arabic script. Chancery hand (though not the best), with wide space between the lines, and with white space used to divide sections. The ends of 9 lines are preserved. Mentions that something should only be done in a timely manner (l. 7) and Abū l-Faraj (l. 8) and a desire that someone should do something for Sayyidnā (l. 9). On verso is Hebrew liturgy, including biblical verses from Nehemiah 1:6–11. Needs further examination.
