Description

Marriage contract in Arabic. Dated 19 [Dhū] l-Ḥijja 1__2 AH (post-1591 CE at the earliest). The JRL catalogue lists the date as 31 January 1680 (29 [Dhū] l-Ḥijja 1090 AH) but this designation cannot be correct given that "اثنين" is clearly rendered within the date. The bride Zahra bint Aḥmad is listed as previously unmarried (bikr). The groom is listed as ʿAlī bin Ḥar__[?] al-Marīyūnī. Requires further examination. MCD.
