Description

The back side of the Ketubbah of Sitt al-Ahl, from 1125 (PGPID 7560). Contains two legal records that were added later, also in the hand of Ḥalfon b. Menashshe. On the left side, Mubāraka, the mother of Sitt al-Ahl, gives her daughter two ornaments worth 6 3/4 dinars as a gift. They are added to the marriage portion. (The court session took place on Sunday, end of Nissan 1126 CE., but the signing took place the day after, Monday 1st of Iyyar). Signed by Yiṣḥaq b. Shemu'el ha-Sephardi Ḥalfōn ha-Levi b. Menashe. (B) After Sitt al-Ahl's hubsnand had taken a solemn oath to divorce her, he retreated. Consequently, the bill of divorce is written and, after its being torn, a new wedding ceremony is held. (Dated: 1132 CE.) (Information from Goitein's index card and CUDL.)
