Description

Letter addressed to "my son," in Fustat. In Arabic script. Probably from his mother, since "your father" is mentioned in the third person several times. The bulk of the content is expressions of longing and rebukes for not having written. They received the letter of the addressee's paternal aunt. On verso there is a piece of the address and Hebrew piyyut.
