A folio from a Siddur with prayer texts and instructions in Judeo-Arabic. The recto is from the end of a section on the prayers of the rainy season added to the daily ʻAmidah. The text is identical to that of Saʹadia Gaon's Kitāb jāmiʾ aṣ-ṣalawāt wat-tāsābīh (Sidur Rav Seʻadyah Gaʹon / Israel Davidson [ed.]. Jerusalem : Mekitse nirdamin, 1963. p. 21).
The next section starts with the headline ואגבאת אטעאם (the obligations pertaining to food). This sequence differs from the siddurim of Saʹadia Gaon and Solomon of Sujulmusa.
This section continues on the verso, with the texts of the blessings before food and the blessing after the meal.
