- اللهم أر
- ضى عن عبد
- الرحمن بن
- سفين (سفيان) بن عمر
- و آمين رب ا
- لعلمين (العالمين) وكتب عبد
- الرحمن هذا ا
- لكتب (الكتاب) لعشر ليل (ليال)
- بقين من جمدى (جمادى) ا

O God, be pleased with ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Sufyān ibn ʿAmr. Āmīn, Lord of the Worlds. And ʿAbd al-Raḥmān wrote this writing, ten nights remaining of Jumādā al-Ākhirah.
Found on the same rock face at Qāʿ al-Muʿtadil, along the Syrian pilgrim route, as several other inscriptions in this catalog (e.g. nos. 18, 28). Uses the same riḍā ("being pleased with") prayer formula seen in the inscription of ʿAmr (no. 16) from a decade earlier.
