Description

Letter in Judaeo-Arabic. Dating: Perhaps 12th century. Wide space between the lines, like an official document, but it appears to be about business. Mentions Ibn Zakkār. The sender orders several miʿjars, at least one with embroidery (ṭirāz). Also orders dabīqī cloth. Also mentions something about 'placing the risk on its owner / his friend' (4 lines from the bottom).
