Description

Official letter of correspondence or report, in Arabic script. The letter begins with a basmala and ṣalwala (blessings on the prophet) followed by a taqbīl clause (slave kisses the ground) and inhāʾ formula. The writer expresses his longing towards the addressee and addresses him as Mawlānā l-Karīm al-ʿĀlī. He mentions being in the service of (an official?) Jamāl al-Dīn al-Ḥakīmī and also refers twice towards taking cognizance of something (fahimuhumā l-Mamlūk), possibly two earlier letters arrived from the addressee. No other significant details are preserved. YU.
