Qaraza ibn Ka'b al-Ansari
قرظة بن كعب الأنصاري
Qaraza ibn Ka'b al-Ansari, Abu Muslim; the last conqueror of Rayy after its repeated breaches, under Abu Musa's Kufa governorship for Uthman, after whom it stayed quiet — Rayy's governors lodged at Hisn al-Zaynabi gathering at the mosque built in his presence, counted in the muhdatha district; he later governed Kufa for Ali, died there, and Ali prayed over him — at Tustar he led Ammar ibn Yasir's horse.
