Marw
مرو
Marw, the great city of Khurasan; its marzban's envoy al-Shahijan sued for peace and Hatim ibn al-Nu'man compounded it at a million two hundred thousand — variants: a million dirhams with two hundred thousand jarib of grain, or a million one hundred thousand uqiyya — the terms widening Muslim housing, all of it sulh save the village al-Sanj taken by force.
