Decree, or rather record of the issuing of a decree/rescript (tawqīʿ) from the chancery of al-Ḥāfiẓ, as a response to a petition (ruqʿa) sent by the judge Sanāʾ al-Mulk ʿAbdallāh b. ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz b. Abī Kāmil regarding restoring the funds, oil and glass that used to be bestowed upon his mosque out of the warehouse in Fusṭāṭ. Dated Muḥarram 532 AH (= September-October 1137 CE). It contains a reproduction of the wording of the authorizing minute (tawqīʿ) introduced by the words mā mithāluhu, as is the case in T-S Ar. 40.41 [ALAD no. 116]. (Information from Khan, ALAD, doc. 118, and from CUDL) Significant from a material point of view because it shows evidence of once having been part of a bifolio, so suggests that such records were kept in quires or folders of some sort—i.e., evidence of archives. (MR). On verso there are Hebrew piyyuṭim including a zulat.
