Dating: 7 Shevat, possibly January 26, 1048 (Gil). The writer confirms receipt of two letters from Nahray and gives directions on business matters, including that when a certain Abu ‘Amr arrives, Nahray should take 16 dinars from him. The writer also requests that Nahray purchase two books with high-quality paper for him, remarking that he has already written to Ḥalfon to buy a cloak (kisā'). He sends good wishes to Abū Isḥāq Barhūn and Abū ʿAlī Ḥassūn. […]
The letter closes with a request to purchase two dasts of high-quality paper (waraq jayyid), greetings to Abū Isḥāq Barhūn and Abū ʿAlī Ḥassūn — with the note that if Nahray is writing to Būṣīr, he should convey greetings to both men there — and the information that Mardūkh has already written to Ḥalfon to buy Nahray a robe (kisāʾ).
