A grown-up reads you the short text; the longer one you read yourself.
Al-Muthanna ibn Haritha ibn Salama ibn Damdam al-Shaybani, one of the commanders of the opening of Iraq, whom al-Baladhuri counts the first conqueror of the Sawad. He raided the Sawad with men of his tribe Banu Shayban, so Abu Bakr wrote him a writ over those of them who entered Islam to fight the Persians; he camped at Khaffan, called his people and they entered Islam. Then Abu Bakr wrote him to hear and obey Khalid ibn al-Walid (may God be pleased with him) — he met him at al-Nibaj and met Jabban at the river. His name ties to Muthanna's writ and the opening of al-Hira, and he appears in the contents of al-Tabari's third volume with Abu Ubayd ibn Mas'ud under the year 13 AH.
