Recto: Letter in the handwriting of Moshe b. Levi ha-Levi, probably from Qalyub to his father in Fustat, consisting almost in its entirely of good wishes for Tabernacles. […] There is an abrupt change of topic (unless this topic is what the wife of the uncle was talking about) to a certain Shelomo. "They said that this is something that pleases neither God nor man, that a woman should be married and her husband does not see her plucking or combing or adorning herself or dressing up or going about." […] The gossip about this wife resembles the situation of Sitt Ghazal in her marriage to Shelomob. Eliyyahu (see T-S 13J8.23), but that marriage took place in 1228 CE, and Moshe b.

Discusses the following matters: (1) praises for the congregation of Fustat (r1–12); (2) greetings (r12–17); (3) acknowledging the letter received from the Fustat congregation (r17–20); (4) apologies for the brevity of this letter (which is at least 50 lines and half a meter long), as the community is being persecuted and the Av Bet Din is wanted by the government (r21–24); (5) reporting that when Daniel b. ʿAzarya passed through Ramla en route to Egypt, they honored him, but they hadn't realized that Daniel had previously gone to Jerusalem, where the Gaon Shelomob. Yehuda and his son Avraham ha-Reviʿi prayed for him and declared him the heir-apparent to the gaonate (r25–30); (6) when Daniel arrived in Ramla, he "took control" of the marketplace and appointed a Maghribī as deputy; there was a dispute over kosher slaughter, and the community of Ramla decided to boycott meat (r30–36); (7) a new kashrut supervisor was appointed, which was even worse; Daniel b. ʿAzarya gained further power (r37–47); when the conflict worsened, Daniel asked Ibn ʿAllūn, an influential Jew in Ashqelon, to intervene with the amīr to have Yosef Av Bet Din fired and banished. […] One of the important new pieces of information contained in this letter is that when Daniel b. ʿAzarya assumed the gaonate in 1051 CE, this was exactly as planned by Shelomob.
