These are documents from the Baghdadi Jewish community. Included are letters in Judeo-Arabic from Chief Rabbi Benjamin Moshi, the Jewish Religious Court, and the Jewish Appeals Court; a letter from a Jewish war prisoner, presumably British, asking to remain in Iraq; verification of a community member’s profession and birth place; representatives of the Jewish community to the British Advisory Council; Arabic court documents concerning marital and financial matters; a request to the Iraqi government for permission to allow students to present Moliere's play, "The Doctor, in Spite of Himself."

These are archival documents from the Ḥevrah Ḳadishah, the Burial Society, in Baghdad. Included is the 1956 annual budget. There is a request from the head of the Burial Society for financial support from the community at large. He presents records of its annual income and expenses, including lists of people who passed away: names, dates, and cost of burial. The lists have three categories of payment: self paid, minimum paid, and free burials for the poor. Also included are three pamphlets. One is in Judeo-Arabic and is the annual report for the Burial Society. This reports discuss the budget and other items of note: one member of the community, a German doctor who escaped Nazi Germany, paid more than the average fee; members of the community who could not pay for a funeral had funerals paid for by the Ḥevrah Ḳadishah but there was a deficit in 5710 (1949-1950) due to more funerals and higher costs of material; the Ḥevrah Ḳadishah asks for more funds from the Baghdadi Jewish community to cover these deficits.
