Interpretation
- Commentary
- The letters seem to have been altered. A stroke has been added to the initial l giving it the appearance of a h. The b and n are smaller than the other letters and are written slightly below the second m. There is a horizontal line across the n of the second name turning it into a t. There is a line across one of the forks of the ʾ turning the letter into a ṣ. Lines have been drawn across the arms of the penultimate letter changing the r into a ṯ. Note the use of ʾ as the definite article before the nisbah.
