The Sulh of al-Rur

صلح الرور

al-Rur

Months besieged on its hill, al-Rur yielded by sulh — no killing, no laying hands on their budd, 'for the budd is as the churches of Christians and Jews and the fire-houses of Magians' — kharaj laid and a mosque built; then al-Sikka before Bayas fell, a ruin today.

The Allafis' Coup on the Makran Frontier

Under al-Hajjaj, Sa'id ibn Aslam al-Kilabi held Makran's frontier till the Allafi brothers Mu'awiya and Muhammad, sons of al-Harith, rose and killed him — Allaf being Rabban ibn Hulwan of Quda'a, Abu Jurm. Al-Hajjaj then gave the thaghr to Mujja'a ibn Si'r al-Tamimi, who raided, took plunder, and opened parts of Qandabil — finished later by Muhammad ibn al-Qasim — dying in Makran within the year. His successor Muhammad ibn Harun al-Namari received, for al-Hajjaj, the king of Jazirat al-Yaqut's gift of Muslim-born women orphaned of merchant fathers.
