Tax receipt, Fatimid.
Petition to Sitt al-Mulk from Yaḥyā b. al-Ḥasan complaining that a local amir has confiscated his grain, 411–14/1021–24. See under PGPID 19304 for explanation of the join. Note that the main Arabic-script documents on ENA 3974.3 and Bodl. MS heb. b. 18/23 do not join with each other.
Petition draft. From Manṣūr b. Salāma (or rather Ṣadaqa?) to the Fatimid caliph al-Āmir bi-Aḥkām Allāh (1101–30 CE). In Arabic script. The petitioner lives in Sindiyūn (on the east bank of the Rashīd arm of the Nile, between Fuwa and Rashīd) in the province of al-Muzāḥamiyya. His father may have been a tax farmer (though Khan reads the word as ṣāmitan rather than ḍāminan) in an unidentified location called Maḥallat Salīm ibn Sahl. The petitioner's mother died, and he has been living in her house enclosure (dār). Manṣūr asks for a rescript (tawqīʿ) to be written on the back of his petition instructing the judge of al-Maḥalla to register the house enclosure as his property. He also asks for a copy for his own records. Information from Khan's edition.
Arabic script (VMR)
Tax receipt from the archive of Abū l-Ḥasan b. Wahb, Fatimid. One registration mark: al-ḥamdu lil-lāh ʿalā niʿamih.
State document, probably. In Arabic script. Dated: Rabīʿ II 425 kharājiyya, which is roughly a year or two prior to 1034 CE. Mentions some sums of dinars and perhaps khuddām. Needs further examination for content. There is a drawing of a boat. On verso there is a Hebrew alphabet and atbash.
Tax receipt, Fatimid, for the sum of 2 dīnārs beginning with a basmala and "waṣl ilā bayt al-māl". Not the usual format; more of a central fiscal hand than a provincial one. Two registration marks: al-ḥamdu lil-lāh wa-bihi nastaʿīn, al-ḥamdu lil-lāh ʿalā niʿamih.
