Overview

Hammam ibn Hani al-Abdi, commander of al-Jarshi, mentioned by al-Baladhuri in "The Conquests of the Lands" in the account of the loss of al-Mafaza. 1.

The loss of al-Mafaza

Al-Baladhuri reports that most of the people of al-Mafaza handed their lands over to him for protection, so he gained control of what was in it. He paid the public treasury's due until he died. His son grew weak, and they offered the land to al-Ma'mun, so it became part of the caliphal estates. 1.
