By Ṣʿd son of Ḍb son of ʿbd son of ʾdm and he camped in this place during the season of the later rains and then the dry season and then the winter, so O Bʿls¹mn, let there be a reunion (with loved ones)

Interpretation
- Commentary
ʾyḍ: this rare reflex of the verb qyẓ, 'to spend the dry season,' exhibits the sound changes q > ʾ and ẓ > ḍ, and is attested only once more in MKMR 9; see Al-Jallad (2015: §3.7.4.1) and Macdonald (2004: 498) for further discussion.
