Description

Letter in Arabic script. Approximately 6 lines are preserved from each side. The content is obscure. Verso is the front of the letter, and recto is the back. The front *might* contain medical advice, but it is hard to read any complete phrase or sentence. Refers to cleanliness/hygiene and to the consistency of something; also possibly a cough and young chickens, but these are tentative. The back contains a report about the travel of someone/something 'al-wasṭāniyya.' Then concludes with greetings. Merits further examination.
