Caliphate or Taifa Period. Rectangular amulet. (Pb. 7.45g/43x24mm). Possibly 10th-11th century. Rectangular lead plaque with no signs of having been bent. In both areas, framed by a narrow band in which a striped motif is repeated, are seven lines of Quranic text in elegant Kufic script, with the upper letters finished with a bevel. anv: (In the name of God, the Gracious,/the Merciful! Take care of your prayer and do not/be one of the careless/and worship your Lord/until death comes to you./God is enough for me and keeps me). Rev. / يموت و سي كفيكهم / أللهُ وَ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ الع َليمُ. (I find strength in the One who has glory, majesty, and omnipotence, and I trust in the Living One who does not die. God will be enough for you against them; He is the One who hears all, the One who knows all.) (Amulets 369-N13. Type AI V, same copy). Very Fine.
