JRL Series A 668

Recto/verso: verso

Letter expressing regret and perhaps dissatisfaction for failing to meet with the addressee, with whom the author intended to spend 'night and day', while they were both in Fustat. On the verso, JRL SeriesA 668-1, the addressee conveys greetings to a number of acquaintances, including an Abu Sulayman Dawwud and an Abu Ishaq b. al-Tuzi; the latter may be the same person who appears in a legal document dated in the middle of the 12th century, see T-S8J5, f. 15
