Notes:

The fragment starts in the middle of Ḳaddish, presumably the one between Pesuḳe de-zimrah and the beginning of the Blessings of the Recitation of the Shemaʹ sequence. This is an expanded version, closer to the Kaddish that blesses the Rabbis.

Here the object of the Kaddish appears by name, שר שלום הנשיא הגדול ראש גליות ישראל (Śar Shalom ha-nasiʾ ha-gadol rosh galuyot Yiśraʾel). This text covers the recto and the first word of the verso, including interspersed instructions in Arabic on how this is to be recited and answered by the congregation.

Mention of an Exilarch named Śar Shalom ben Pinḥas appears in Baghdad in 1341 (See: Moshe Gil, Be-malkut Yishmaʾel bi-teḳufat ha-geʾonim. Tel Aviv : University of Tel Aviv, 1997, vol 1, p. 444). His complete genealogy appears on p. 768 of the Keter Shem Tov Bible (Ms. Sassoon 82, Ohel David, 1932 p. 3).

The verso continues with Arabic instructions, without text, on the continuation of the Morning service, including the ʻAmidah, followed by a text of the Ḳedushah, including interspersed instructions in Arabic on how this is to be recited and answered by the congregation.
