† Hijri date derived by computation from the Gregorian/Julian date; it may differ from the transmitted date by a day or two.
In al-Baladhuri: Umar ibn Hafs ibn Uthman ibn Qubaysa ibn Abi Sufra al-Ataki; al-Mansur gave him Ifriqiya after dismissing Muhammad ibn al-Ash'ath — the text there reads 'he appointed Umar ibn Hafs Hazarmard in his place', while elsewhere 'he being the one who captured Hazarmard' — al-Mansur admired him; he entered Ifriqiya, raided to the farthest Berber lands, built al-Abbasiyya, then Abu Khatim al-Ibadi fought him and he was martyred with a group of his household.
