Greetings:
Mr. Fadhil Abbas pays all installments to us regularly
and is not in debt. He has repaired the iron doors at his own
expense due to the sudden breakage occurring in the hinges, and therefore
he has come to request your Excellency to grant him some money as it cost him
six dinars (6 Dinars) and he is of modest means.

Subject: Request for compensation for repairing shop doors
Greetings,
I am Fadhil Abbas, the tenant of shops numbered 165 and 162 in the Al-Tayaran neighborhood in Baghdad for an amount
of (25) Dinars annually. Due to the age of these shops, they have become unfit
and for fear of collapse, as the wooden flooring and doors were completely broken, I was forced
to replace the floors and repair the doors anew. All the mentioned repairs cost me an amount of
six Dinars and seven hundred Fils. Therefore, I request your sovereignty to order the engineer to conduct an inspection
of the repairs and the new doors and to grant me the mentioned amount of (6/700) Dinars ⟦Fils⟧.
I have been renting the mentioned shops for a period of ten years, and I have always cooperated at
other times with my own money and from my pocket when my financial situation was good, but now it is not.
I cannot afford to pay any amount from my pocket due to my weak financial situation. With my utmost thanks and appreciation to your sovereignty.
