(This is less whimsical than it sounds, e.g., if he has endowed a charitable waqf, does he continue to acquire merit from all the people it helps in the future?) The answer is no, he is rewarded on the basis of the intention that he had when he did the good deed in his lifetime, not on the basis of events that occur after his death.

15124LetterBodl. MS heb. c 50/26
Primary language
Judaeo-Arabic
The letter is quite difficult and written in an elevated register with learned quotations and allusions. Goitein comments, "We never know whether he is speaking in jest or in earnest." Some clues about the context of the letter are found toward the bottom: the sender praises God for returning "our master to the seat of his fathers," apparently referring to the current Head of the Jews (ll. 20–21); he rebukes the addressees for neglecting to convey his request to "our master," because otherwise the fatwā would not have been delayed so long ("unless there was some eclipse in the world... preventing me from seeing the dawn") (ll. 28–32); and he refers to "mawlāy al-meʿuelle" (l. 35). The first part of the fragment preserved here is a long, cryptic passage about a night filled with anxiety and insomnia, with each event of the night attached to a biblical verse.

Primary language
Judaeo-Arabic
The contemporary chronicler and poet Niqūla al-Turk (1763-1828) offers further context for understanding how the massacre unfolded. He states that the cavalry in question were led by a certain Ibn ʿAqīl (ابن عقيل) from Damascus to Safed, where they 'pillaged the Jewish quarter' and cornered a French-allied defensive force in the Citadel. This latter detachment consisted of fifty soldiers under the command of a certain Muṣtafa Beshīr, who defended the Safed Citadel until French cavalry reinforcements arrived."

The mention of "the wars that do not go away" (המלחמות שאין יוצא) in line 11 is probably a chronological clue that the civil war for control over Egypt was still underway following the departure of the French expeditionary forces in 1801. Muḥammad ʿAlī Pasha did not consolidate control over Cairo until the summer of 1805 and it took several more years until all of Egypt fell under his administration by 1811.

15150LetterENA 2808.26b
Primary language
Judaeo-Arabic
The writer is under duress from difficult times (awqāt al-shadā'id). There is a sick person in his household who has had a nosebleed (ruʿāf) for the entire week (the word "sick person" could plausibly be emended to "maraḍ" from "marīḍ," meaning that the writer himself has a nosebleed, but the next line, "I was away," suggests that it was rather someone in his family).
