Description

Request for a fatwā (or possibly a petition or official report, or simply a letter). In Arabic script. Dating: Likely Mamluk-era. Begins with a taqbīl clause (yuqabbilu l-arḍ) and then moves to the qiṣṣa (wa-yunhī). Mentions quires (ṣaḥāʾif), a shop (dukkān), possibly its movement from one town to another, a qāḍī, an iqṭāʿ, and someone's son.
