  "en": "Tripoli stood as a frontier town holding the state's rite while cut off from the capital in the 750s, Genoese merchants frequenting it and spying out its weaknesses; their herald cried war with arms already donned, the people woke in panic, and seeing them on the walls thought only of saving themselves — Thabit ibn Umar their captain escaping to the Hulla to join his brother — while the Christians held the town until the Muslims won it back."
