ولاية سلم بن زياد خراسان

ولاية سلم بن زياد خراسان

Yazid ibn Mu'awiya gave Salm ibn Ziyad Khurasan; the Khwarizmians truced at four hundred thousand borne to him. He crossed the river with his wife Umm Muhammad bint Abdallah ibn Uthman ibn Abi al-As (may God be pleased with him) al-Thaqafi — the first Arab woman across — came to Samarqand whose folk gave him a thousand-fold bloodwit; a son born to him was named al-Sughdi; his wife borrowed the Sughd lord's wife's jewels, wore and returned them. From Sughd he sent an army to Khujanda — with A'sha Hamdan among them — defeated; then back at Marw he campaigned again across the river and killed Bandun the Sughdi, whose people had mustered for him.
