al-Rabi' ibn Khuthaym al-Thawri

الربيع بن خثيم الثوري

Al-Rabi' ibn Khuthaym al-Thawri, ascetic of the Followers; Ali sent him raiding Daylam at the head of four thousand, and Qazwin kept his famous mosque with a tree the common folk rubbed for blessing — said to have sprouted from his planted tooth-stick — until Tahir ibn Abdallah's governor cut it in al-Mutawakkil's reign fearing it would beguile the people.
