תיאור
Legal document. Record of a deposition in court (maḥḍar). Dated: Sunday, 21 Av/Rabīʿ I 442 AH = 12 August 1050 CE. Unsigned draft, written by Yefet b. David b. Shekhanya. Musāfir b. ʿAmram sues Saʿīd b. ʿAllūn al-Qudsī concerning a diadem which Musāfir had given to Saʿīd to transport to Tyre but never arrived. Saʿīd takes several oaths that if Musāfir shows the court a letter from Tyre (presumably attesting that the diadem never arrived), he will pay a fine of 10 dinars to the qodesh for the poor of Jerusalem. Musāfir then produces exactly such a letter. Saʿīd then claims that his oath was only about a letter from Tyre from his father-in-law. Musāfir then shows the court letters from the father-in-law. (Ed. Gil, Documents of the Jewish Pious Foundations, doc. 31; Gil's translation confuses some of the procedure.)

In Thy Name, oh Merciful:
-
The undersigned whose testimony was recorded on this court record were present on the spot when the lawsuit was brought
-
by Musāfir b. ʿAmrām against Saʿīd b. ʿAllūn, known as al-Qudsī regarding a tiara
-
which Musāfir b. ʿAmrām said that he had sent with him to Tyre, but he (i.e. Saʿīd b. ʿAllūn) did not
-
deliver it. For this reason there was a discussion among them, consisting in short of the following:
-
Sa'id b. ʿAllūn al-Qudsī said that if he presented to Musāfir a letter coming
-
to him from Tyre in which this tiara would be mentioned, he (i.e. Musāfir) would have to pay as qōdesh 10
-
dinars to the poor of Jerusalem. He took an oath from him on this several times. Then Musāfir was presented with
-
several letters from Tyre, and said that his oath referred to a letter from his father-in-law;
-
so he was presented with a letter from his father-in-law; but(?) his oath had been that if he was presented with any letter
-
whatsoever, from anybody in Tyre, he would have to pay as qōdesh 10
-
dinars. So since Musāfir b. ʿAmrām requested them to write down their attestation
-
of it, they attested and affixed their signatures beneath these deeds, on Sunday,
-
(14-15) 28 Av, corresponding to the month Rabīʿ al-awwal of the year 442.
