ولاية تميم بن زيد السند والانسحاب من الهند

الديبل

Tamim ibn Zayd al-Utbi — feeble successor — died near Daybul at the Buffalo-Water, named for herds fleeing the shore's blue flies. Of the Arabs' most open-handed, he spent eighteen million Tatari dirhams found in Sind's bayt al-mal. A Yarbu'i lad Khanis reached Hind, begged al-Farazdaq a letter for his manumission, swearing by Ghalib's grave; Farazdaq's verses asked 'Khaytis freed as my bounty' — and Tamim, unsure if the name was Habish or Khanis, freed every slave so lettered. In his days the Muslims quit the lands of Hind and abandoned their stations, not returning to this day.
