Ottoman Turkish Travel Document/Receipt

This is old Ottoman Turkish. [it is likely an acknowledgment by a man called "Abdulraheem the son of (name not clear) Hassan Asfahani from the state of Iran and a resident in Najaf" to "Joseph Oussani from Ottoman state who resides in Baghdad". It states receipt of money, and costs of traveling and food and drinks - traveling to the US, and stating Chicago. There is also names of witnesses - written on the right side: Abu Talib, Mirza AlHamza, Saed Mahmoud Kamil, Haji Ali, name not clear, only a signature. [It includes other information, but not clear to me.]
