Overview

In 134 AH the Ibadis of Oman under al-Julanda ibn Mas'ud rose against the new Abbasid caliphate, as Ahmad Amin relates in "The Dawn of Islam". 1

The account

The caliph sent against them Khazim ibn Khuzayma with an army that sailed across the sea and anchored on the coast of Oman. They fought each other fiercely, with victory going back and forth. 1

The end

The Abbasid army set fire to the wooden houses of the rebels with torches dipped in naphtha, and the rebels turned to saving their families. Khazim attacked them, and al-Julanda was killed among those killed. The dead reached about ten thousand, and their heads were sent to Basra. 1

The description of the rebels as Kharijites is the source's own term. The Ibadi view of the event is not recorded here; an additional source is needed.

Marzuq's Ruse upon the Ispahbadh

When Tabaristan's people breached under al-Mansur and killed Muslims he sent Khazim ibn Khuzayma al-Tamimi and Rawh ibn Hatim al-Muhallabi — with them Marzuq Abu al-Khasib, Khazim's mawla, namesake of Kufa's Qasr al-Khasib. As the siege dragged he begged them to beat him and shave his head and beard; done, he escaped to the Ispahbadh claiming 'these two betrayed me — see what they did — I have fled to you; accept my desertion and I will show you the Arabs' weaknesses'. The Ispahbadh clothed him, rewarded him and showed trust; Marzuq wrote the generals all they needed, contrived the gate till it opened, the Muslims took the city and subdued the land.
