Whusha al-dallala

Karima bint Ammar, better known as Wuhsha al-dallala was a Jewish Egyptian businesswoman and pawnbroker active in Fustat, Egypt. Her existence is attested solely by a series of documents preserved in the Cairo Geniza; she is the only woman whose biography could be comprehensively reconstructed from these records.
