The Storming of Rawar and Brahmanabadh
فتح راور وبرهمباذ
Muhammad stormed Rawar, where a wife of Dahir, fearing capture, burned herself, her maids and her wealth; then Brahmanabadh al-Atiqa — two farsakhs from the later al-Mansura, then mere thicket — where Dahir's remnant fought and fell, eight thousand dead or twenty-six thousand by the larger count, and today ruins. Sawandra's folk won aman on hosting and guiding the Muslims — Muslims today — and Basmad truced the same. Ibn al-Kalbi names Dahir's killer al-Qasim ibn Tha'laba al-Ta'i.
