Conquest of Kirman

فتح كرمان

Kirman

Uthman ibn Abi al-As met Kirman's marzban at Abr Kawan by night and killed him — Kirman weakened and hearts dismayed. Ibn Amir sent Mujashi' ibn Mas'ud after Yazdgard to Bimand, where his army perished; left in charge when Ibn Amir marched for Khurasan, Mujashi' took Bimand by force — sparing its folk on aman; his Qasr Mujashi' stands there — took Burukharwa, then al-Shirjan, Kirman's chief city: days of siege, a horse-sally, taken by storm, a man left behind and many of its people exiled. Abu Musa had earlier sent al-Rabi' ibn Ziyad round al-Shirjan, trucing Bamm and the Andaghar — betrayed, Mujashi' retook them, took Jirraft by force, and rode Kirman till it was tamed.

Conquest of Jur

Jur, Ardashir-Khurra's city, where Harim ibn Hayyan stood — the Muslims besieged it and came away to besiege Istakhr, raiding the countryside as if broken. When Ibn Amir sat before it they fought then fortified, and he took it by the sword in 29h; another telling: raided for years until they entered by a hidden way they held to till the city fell. Ibn Amir also took al-Karyan and Fashjan of Darabjird — neither had joined the Hirbadh's sulh, and both had breached.
