ENA 2727.57
Letter in Judaeo-Arabic from a man to a business associate and/or family member. Mentions "your father" and "your paternal uncle Abū l-Faḍl." The overall tone of the letter is reflected in this passage: "When you were (or: will be) in the city, I did (or: will do) for you everything you wanted (or: want). Do not be rebellious more than what is needed, for I know you regret the whole story. You are like a perplexed person." The addressee had the idea of liquidating his shop, which the sender says is a ludicrous idea, his creditors would then demand twice what they are actually owed. Handwriting of the same scribe: ENA NS 39.22. The sender may be Abū l-Hajjāj b. Abū l-Faraj al-Ṭabīb (see ENA NS I.2 and T-S 10J13.10), and the addressee may be Abū l-Najm, the son of Manṣūr b. Sālim. The story, the points of contention, and even some of the exact phrases are nearly identical to those in Manṣūr's letters of exhortation.
