غزوة بلنجر

كتب إليه عثمان ينهاه عن اقتحام الدروب بالمسلمين، خشية أن يقتلوا. ولم يرجع عن مقصده، فاجتمع عليه الترك والخزر وقاتلوه قتالاً شديداً، فقتل. وكان يقال له «ذو النور»، وهو اسم سيفه. 2

يذكر ابن الأثير أن أهل بلنجر وضعوا جسده في تابوت يستسقون به. 2

تاريخ الوفاة مشتق من السنة الهجرية، والتحويل غير مؤكد.

Salman ibn Rabi'a al-Bahili

Salman ibn Rabi'a al-Bahili; in al-Baladhuri: it is said he was in Abu Ubayda's army with Abu Umama al-Suddi ibn Ajlan, companion of the Messenger of God, and lodged at a fortress in Qurus that was named after him — known as Hisn Salman — then returned from Syria among the reinforcements sent to Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas in Iraq; others say he raided the Byzantines after Iraq's conquest and before his march on Armenia, camping by this fortress which he had reached from the Mar'ash side, whence the name; yet others hold that this Salman — with Ziyad — was of the Saqaliba whom Marwan ibn Muhammad stationed in the marches, and that the fortress was named for that man; God knows best.
