Letter from Fāṭima to her 'sister' al-Ḥājja Umm al-Barakāt. In Arabic script. Opens with greetings to Abū l-Faḍl and Nāṣir al-Dīn and his children, then Umm al-Barakāt and [Sitt al-]Jamīʿ and her children and another woman and everybody in the house. The body of the message mentions the arrival of Muḥammad al-Asyūṭī. Someone appears to have been killed by Bedouins (ʿurbān). The rest requires further examination.
