Hisham ibn Amr al-Taghlibi's Sind

ولاية هشام بن عمرو التغلبي السند

al-Qandahar

Al-Mansur gave Sind to Hisham ibn Amr al-Taghlibi: he opened what resisted, sent Amr ibn Jamal's bawarij to Narand, took Qashayr with its crowds of captives, reopened Multan, expelled the Arab mutaghalliba from Qandabil, and came on Qandahar by ship — razed the budd and built a mosque on its site. The land flowered under him; then the thaghr passed to Umar ibn Hafs Hazarmard, then Dawud ibn Yazid ibn Hatim, whose mawla of Kinda Abu al-Summa is today's mutaghallib.

Abbad ibn Ziyad's Qandahar and the 'Abbadiyya Caps

Abbad ibn Ziyad raided from Sijistan — Sanarudh, Kish, across the mafaza — and took Qandahar after hard fighting and Muslim dead; seeing the folk's tall caps he had them copied, whence the 'Abbadiyya — and Ibn Mufarrigh's line: 'how many a corpse of your troops by Qandahar unburied'.
