Description

Letter sent from Ṣanʿāʾ to Jerusalem. Dating: probably 19th century. Addressed to Sālim b. Hārūn al-Ḥamdī. It seems to be from his daughter Ghazāl and her husband Mūsā b. Dāwūd al-Surrī, and also mentions their children Dāwūd and [...]. They seem to be intending to travel to Jerusalem to be with the addressee. Also mentions arrival in Aden. Merits further examination.
