  "en": "Shahrij held a full month's siege; one day a Muslim slave lagged behind — taken for a defector — and wrote the garrison an aman on an arrow he shot in. Next day they came out: 'here is your aman'; the Muslims wrote Umar, who answered 'the Muslims' slave is of the Muslims — his dhimma is as theirs: honor it', and they did. In another telling the fort was at Siraf, the garrison saying 'we know not freeman from slave', and Umar's answer the same."
