The text here includes a saying of Abu Mihjan, a companion of the Prophet, about the Jews of the Hijaz.

The panel bears the name of 'Abdullah al-Harawi - a scribe known as Tabbakh - who was one of the most famous scribes of 15th century Herat. He wrote in all calligraphic styles and designed inscriptions for buildings in Herat and Mashhad. His signed pieces are written in Herat and Samarqand between AH 833/1429-30 AD and AH 867/1462-63 AD.
