תיאור
Report to a Fatimid vizier. Dating: fifth/eleventh century. Khan published T-S K25.221 as the end of petition. Marina Rustow later found the join to the upper part of the document, T-S Ar.22.140, and if join is correct, it's not a petition but a report. About the join: the two fragments have the same size, format, layout and titulature. The hand on the two fragments differ slightly, possibly because the text on T-S K25.221 is the end of the document and formulaic, so less carefully written. T-S Ar.22140 was reused for a Judaeo-Arabic commentary on Isaiah 54:1 and 1 Samuel 1:11, while T-S K25.221 was reused for Hebrew poetry headed with the name of the meter, כפיף, and for Arabic accounts. Join: Marina Rustow. On the bottom fragment, there are traces of ink below lines 2 and 3 that demonstrate that the paper was folded when the ink was still wet. (Information from Khan, from CUDL and from Marina Rustow.)
