Description

Legal document, in Arabic script. Describing a property, probably put up as collateral or for lease. Beautifully written. Among other landmarks, mentions the mosque of Mālik b. Sharāḥīl in Kawlān (مسجد مالك بن شراحيل). [Khan, ALAD: "a document recording the granting of a loan ʿāriyya of property, in which the offeree of the loan acknowledges and accepts the terms of the document, 'aqarra bi-dhalika kullihi wa-qabila minhu'."] Needs further examination. Reused on recto for a piyyut in Hebrew. FGP Joins Suggestions yields dozens of fragments that resemble verso and that have Arabic script on the other side. (Information in part from Goitein's index card, and Khan, ALAD).
