Description

Two folios from al-Risāla al-Ḥātimiyya, a narrative of a debate which took place in Baghdad in the 960s in which Abū ʿAlī Muḥammad b. al-Ḥasan al-Ḥātimī (931–98) confronts al-Mutannabī (d. 965) and criticizes his poetry. In Judaeo-Arabic. The scribe made frequent errors in transcribing the text from the Arabic original. On this text, see S. A. Bonebakker, Ḥātimī and his encounter with Mutanabbī: A Biographical Sketch (Amsterdam, 1984). Join: Alan Elbaum.
