Description

Legal document, in Arabic script. Mentions the execution of something with "riḍā"(agreement). Dating: Possibly Ayyubid or Mamluk-era, but this should be checked. 11 fragmentary lines are preserved from the bottom of the document. Mentions al-Rayyis al-Kāmil Amīn al-Ḥukm (at least in Mamluk times, the Amin al-Ḥukm was a qāḍī who supervised the estates of orphans). Also mentions "that day in Cairo." The name ʿImrān al-Ṣinhājī appears in the last line. Needs further examination.
