title = "A NEW WAQF INSCRIPTION FROM THE TURN OF THE TENTH CENTURY CE",
abstract = "This article presents an edition, translation, and analysis of one of the oldest surviving waqf texts, which in our view dates from the turn of the tenth century CE and originates in the Greater Syria region. The text, which records the endowment of an estate by a certain Abū Ṣāliḥ Khayr al-Khādim (a mawlā of the caliph al-Muʿtazz bi-{\textquoteright}llāh), bears similarities to other waqf texts from this period and region, such as those published by Moshe Sharon and Amikam Elad, and our analysis considers the broad historical and intellectual context in which it is to be situated.",
