1 In the name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
2 This document has been written, and testified by those peoples whose names appear at the end of this document.
3 ʿĀyishā daughter of Muḥammad b. Ṭahir has settled with her brother, the scholar ʿAlī b. Muḥammad b. Ṭahir, on the 
4 inheritance which is hers from her mother and father, in a state of good health and of her own volition and desire, without coercion or force, in a state of sound body, and with
5 legal capacity to act. She has agreed to transfer to her brother all the inheritance that was hers [in exchange] for two well-demarcated houses [adjacent to one another?]
6 and the wide space that is in front of those houses along four boundaries. The first boundary is the wall of the villa and 
7 the well. The second [boundary] is the land (?) of Asad al-Dīn b. Ḥalīm (?). The third [boundary] is the road. The fourth [boundary] is the wall of the pomegranate grove.
8 [She also received] a sweet pomegranate tree at the end (?) of the wall and two walnut trees located in the Kharīn neighbourhood and the shares that belonged to them
9 there, as well as one ‘kāghrāgh’ tree in Bunkazh Kharīn. She settled for these mentioned places
10 from her brother, the scholar ʿAlī, and received these places from him and made them her own property.
11 The scholar ʿAlī gave her these places. [In exchange,] ʿĀyishā has handed over her inheritance of
12 mountainous land in which she held inherited shares – including a vineyard, trees, villas and other places –
13 to her brother. She has renounced all claims and has forgiven him,
14 of her own volition and desire. This [was written] on Tuesday, 13 nights remaining of Jumīd al-awlā  in the year
15 473.
16 Ḥusayn b. Ḥusayn has witnessed this, and it was written in his presence at his order.
17 Aḥmad al-Mubārak has witnessed this.
18 Muḥammad b. ʿAlī and it was written in his hand.
