وثائق، مسـتندات، صكوك Explanation: The main point here is that "instrument" in this context is no more than a fancy term for "document" - nothing more. A document could be a contract, a will, a check, or the like. In other words, it is not a document in the sense that we use when we refer to some computer files (like a Word document). It is rather a document that has a legal consequence and whose force is effected by a signature or signatures. Now, I have seen some translators render this term آليات، أدوات I am not going to comment on such translations, and I am not going to favor any of the three terms I suggested. My point here is simply to point out the almost obvious: an instrument is a document, and that is all. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2008-08-31 08:16:26 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Please check out this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_instrument |
