Uqba ibn Nafi' al-Fihri

Uqba ibn Nafi' al-Fihri; Amr ibn al-As gave him the Maghreb — he reached Zawila, all between it and Barqa submitting in good obedience, their Muslims paying sadaqa, covenant-holders confirmed in jizya, laid at what he judged they could bear: sadaqa taken from the rich returned to the poor, the dhimma's jizya borne to Egypt, tithe and half-tithe from Muslim lands.
