14651LetterENA 1822a.58
Primary language
Judaeo-Arabic
Baqāʾ; greetings to the addressee's son Abū l-Barakāt (so possibly the addressee is Eliyyahu the Judge); a complaint about the wife of Abū Saʿd who wants to "excommunicate, and I told her, 'excommunicate and do whatever you want to do'"; a request to obtain from the silk merchant the son of Sitt Ziyāda (this is likely Makārim b. Sitt Ziyāda al-Qazzāz mentioned in other documents) a sum of money; and again a complaint about the ships' delay in Rosetta (Rashīd).

The letter seems to assume that, say, on the third day of the interval between the two holidays most of the pledges had already come in. Another interesting point is the Nagid's admonition to think of the poor on the Siyyum (Heb.), the festive conclusion of the yearly reading of the Pentateuch, which takes place at the end of the autumn holidays.

There are numerous claims. (1) The Rayyis used to provide wheat and loans of money to the wife of Ṣāʿid, and she now owes 30 dinars that she has not repaid. (2) The two sisters jointly owned (or rented?) a house near Bāb al-Yahūd worth 250 dinars. There is some issue with the rent, such that the wife of Ṣāʿid owes 14 dinars. (3–5) These entries deal with items such as salted meat, clothing, jewelry, and household goods, and the wife of Ṣāʿid owes ~10 dinars for each item.

The betrothal deed contains the common stipulations found in this period: e.g. the groom is taking upon himself not to marry another wife for 20 years unless his wife is childless for 10 years and not to travel outside of Egypt–except for Jerusalem. Although many Karaite signature sections were recorded solely by scribes in the 17th-18th centuries, in this document each signature represents an individual autograph: Shemuʾel Ḥakīm (probably the scribe), Yiṣḥaq Ḥakīm, Yosef Kohen, and Naḥūm (surname omitted).
