Description

Letter in Judaeo-Arabic. Apparently describing the situation of an ʿaguna (a woman abandoned by her husband without a divorce). "Their summoning to the court. . . " It seems she has also been deprived of access to her athāth (=qumāsh=dowry?) and any money with which to feed herself (tataqawwatu bihi).
