Then Khalid sent Jarir ibn Abdallah al-Bajali to Baniqya's people; Busbuhra ibn Saluba came out, excused himself from fighting and offered peace — Jarir made peace on a thousand dirhams and a taylasan, though it is said Ibn Saluba came to Khalid himself for this peace.

Among that captivity: Humran ibn Aban ibn Khalid al-Tamri, Uthman's mawla; Sirin, father of Muhammad ibn Sirin, and his brothers Yahya, Anas and Ma'bad — the eldest — mawali of Anas ibn Malik; Abu Amra, grandfather of the poet Abdallah ibn Abd al-A'la; Yasar, grandfather of Muhammad ibn Ishaq author of the sira, mawla of Qays ibn Makhrama ibn al-Muttalib; Murra abu Ubayd, grandfather of Muhammad ibn Zayd ibn Ubayd ibn Murra and Nafis ibn Muhammad ibn Zayd, lords of the palace by al-Harra; and Nusayr, father of Musa ibn Nusayr the Maghreb's conqueror, mawla of the Umayyads. Al-Kalbi said Abu Farwa Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Aswad and Nusayr were two Arab men of Arasha of Bali captured in Abu Bakr's days from Syria's Jabal al-Jalil; Nusayr's name was Nasr, diminutivized — an Umayyad freed him, he returned to Syria and Musa was born to him at Kafr Mari village; he was lame. It was also said they were brothers of Ayn al-Tamr's captives whose wala' lay with Banu Dubba; al-Mada'ini: Na'im al-Asadi bought Abu Farwa, then Uthman bought him for grave-digging; when the people rose on Uthman he was with them against him, Uthman saying 'repel the wrongs' — he answered 'you are first among them: I bought you from alms-money to dig graves and you abandoned it'; Abu Farwa was named for the fur garment on him when captured. It was also said Khalid made peace with Ayn al-Tamr's fortress people and these captives were found in a church in some canal-district, and that Sirin was of Jarjaraya's people visiting kin when taken. Via al-Sha'bi: Khalid made peace with Hira's and Ayn al-Tamr's people and wrote Abu Bakr who approved — something on them, nothing on their lands.

They agreed on a hundred thousand yearly — the first money carried to Medina from Iraq — on condition of no treachery and being eyes on Persia, in year 12. Via Yahya ibn Adam: Hira's people were six thousand men, each liable fourteen dirhams weight-five, making eighty-four thousand weight-five — sixty thousand weight-seven — a document he had read. Via Yazid ibn Nubaysha: we reached the Mudhayyib frontier post then came to Hira whose people fortified in the White Palace, the Palace of Ibn Buqayla and the Palace of the Madyasis — we exhausted stratagems in their courts, then they sued peace. Khuraym ibn Aws ibn Haritha ibn La'm al-Ta'i had told the Prophet 'if God opens Hira for you give me Buqayla's daughter'; at the peace he claimed her, Bashir ibn Sa'd and Muhammad ibn Maslama al-Ansari testified for him, she was excepted and delivered to him; her people bought her back for a thousand dirhams — she being old — and told him he sold cheap, they would have paid multiples; he said 'I did not think a number could exceed a thousand'; a hadith variant has the asker a man of Rabi'a — the first account is firmer. - واقعہ

تقریباً 30 رمضان 13 ھIn al-Baladhuri: the Day of Quss al-Natif, being the Day of the Bridge; the Persians sent against the Arabs Dhu al-Hajib Mardanshah — Anushirwan had named him Bahman for blessing, called Dhu al-Hajib for tying his brows up over his eyes in pride, though his name is said to be Rustam. Abu Ubayd ordered the bridge tied — Baniqya's people helping its knotting; it is said the bridge was old for Hira's people crossing to their estates, Abu Ubayd repairing it for it was broken. He and the Muslims crossed from al-Muzawwaha over the bridge and met Dhu al-Hajib in four thousand mailed men with an elephant — or several; they fought fiercely, wounds spreading through the Muslims. Salit ibn Qays said 'Abu Ubayd, I had forbidden you cutting this bridge to them and counselled withdrawing to some quarter and writing the Commander of the Faithful for reinforcement — you refused'; Salit fought till killed. Abu Ubayd asked where this beast's kill-spot was — 'its trunk' — charged and struck the elephant's trunk while Abu Muhjan ibn Habib al-Thaqafi struck its leg and hamstrung it; the polytheists charged and killed Abu Ubayd — or the elephant knelt on him and he died under it. His brother al-Hakam took the banner — killed; his son Jabr — killed; then al-Muthanna ibn Haritha held it a while and withdrew the people, each guarding another. Urwa ibn Zayd al-Khayl fought that day a fight worth a company's; Abu Zubayd al-Ta'i the poet fought hayya for the Muslims with the westerners — a Christian come to Hira on some affair. Al-Muthanna reached Ulays and wrote Umar the news with Urwa ibn Zayd. Killed at the Bridge per Abu Mikhnaf: Abu Zayd al-Ansari, one of those who collected the Qur'an in the Prophet's time.

Sayf relates Mihran went on crossing to a place called al-Buwayb — where he was killed; al-Buwayb's flanks are said to have filled with bones till dust covered them in the civil-war time, and the stretch between al-Sakun and Banu Sulaym was the Euphrates' outflow into al-Jawf in the Khasraws' day. The Muslims camped at al-Nukhayla, Jarir ibn Abdallah over Bajila by some accounts and al-Muthanna over Rabi'a by others — or each over his own people.

Night fell and they crept back to camp, in year 14. Killing Mihran was claimed by Jarir ibn Abdallah and al-Mundhir ibn Hassan ibn Sirar al-Dabbi — each saying 'I killed him' — in a sharp dispute: al-Mundhir took his belt, Jarir the rest of his spoil; it is also said al-Husayn ibn Ma'bad ibn Zurara ibn Udas al-Tamimi was among his killers.

تقریباً 17 ھIn al-Baladhuri via Qays ibn Abi Hazim: Bajila were a quarter of the people at al-Qadisiyya, and Umar had granted them a quarter of the Sawad; when Jarir came on delegation Umar said 'were I not an accountable divider I would have kept you on your grant, but the people have grown many — return it to them,' and they did, Umar awarding Jarir eighty dinars — or, it is said, four hundred. A Bajila woman called Umm Kurzan said 'my father died and his share is fixed in the Sawad — I will not submit'; Jarir told her 'your people have agreed,' and she answered 'I will not submit unless you mount me on a docile she-camel with a red saddle-cloth and fill my hands with gold' — which was done. Via Jarir: Umar gave Bajila the Sawad's quarter and they took it three years. Via al-Waqidi from Juzayr ibn Yazid ibn Jarir from his father from his grandfather: Umar had made for him and his people a quarter of what they conquered of the Sawad; when Jalula's spoils piled up Jarir claimed his quarter, Sa'd wrote informing Umar, and Umar wrote back: if Jarir and his people wish to have fought only for a wage like the mu'allafa qulubuhum, give them their wage — but if they fought for God and reckoned on what is with Him, then they are of the Muslims, for them what is for them and on them what is on them. Jarir said: 'the Commander of the Faithful spoke truth and kept faith — we have no need of the quarter.' - واقعہ
إقرار عمر السواد في أيدي أهله
تقریباً 17 ھIn al-Baladhuri: Umar wrote to Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas when he conquered the Sawad: 'as for what follows — your letter reached me saying the people asked you to divide what God granted them; when my letter reaches you, look at what the army's men brought on their horses and mounts of money or chattel and divide it among them after the fifth, and leave the land and rivers to their workers so it may be in the Muslims' stipends — for if you divide it among those present nothing will remain for those after them.' Abdallah ibn Hazim asked Mujahid about the Sawad's land: 'it is neither bought nor sold — it was conquered by force and left undivided, so it belongs to all Muslims.' Sulayman ibn Yasar said Umar confirmed the Sawad for those in men's loins and women's wombs, made its people dhimma — jizya taken from them and kharaj from their land, dhimma with no enslavement — and al-Walid ibn Abd al-Malik had wanted to make the Sawad's people fay' until told of Umar's precedent, so God turned him from it. Umar had wanted to divide the Sawad among the Muslims and ordered them counted — each man's share came to three peasants — so he consulted the Prophet's companions and Ali said 'leave them, a substance for the Muslims'; he then sent Uthman ibn Hunayf al-Ansari. Jamil ibn Busbuhri, dihqan of the two Fallujas and al-Nahrayn, converted, with Bistam ibn Tarsi dihqan of Babil and Khutarniyya, al-Rufayl dihqan of al-Al, Fayruz dihqan of Nahr al-Malik and Kutha, and other dihqans — Umar did not interfere with them, did not take the land from their hands, and lifted the jizya from their necks. - واقعہ

He first offered Ali the bay'a on the Book, the Sunna and the conduct of Abu Bakr and Umar; Ali answered 'to the best of my ability', while Uthman answered 'yes'; so Abd al-Rahman took Uthman's hand and pledged, and the Muhajirun and Ansar pledged. Ibn Mas'ud said when Uthman was pledged: 'we have invested the best of those remaining, and we did not fall short'. - واقعہ
نقض الإسكندرية واستردادها من منويل
23? ھIn al-Baladhuri: the Romans wrote to Constantine son of Heraclius — then king — telling how few the Muslims among them were and of their humiliation in paying jizya, whereupon he sent one of his men called Manuel with three hundred ships laden with fighters; he entered Alexandria and slew the Muslim ribat there save those God shielded in flight — in year 25. Amr ibn al-As heard and marched on them with fifteen thousand, finding their fighters out ravaging the villages below Alexandria; the Muslims met them, loosed arrows an hour behind their shields, then charged home, battle joining bitterly, till the unbelievers broke and fled — no halting nor turning short of Alexandria — where they fortified and set up the arrada-engines; Amr fought them hardest, planted mangonels that took the walls, pressed the war till he entered by the sword by force, slew the fighters, captured the offspring — some Romans fleeing to Rome — and Manuel was killed; Amr and the Muslims demolished Alexandria's wall, which Amr had vowed to do should he take it. Some narrators put this raid in year 23, others the breach in 23 or 25 — God knows best. Amr laid kharaj on Alexandria's land and jizya on its people; it is also told that the Muqawqis had withdrawn from Alexandria's folk when they broke, so Amr confirmed him and those with him on their first terms — and also that he had died before this raid. Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz used to say: we opened no village of the Maghreb on treaty save three — Alexandria, Kafr Tis and Sultays — saying whoever of these places' people embraced Islam, his person and property were left free; and Alexandria's jizya was eighteen thousand dinars until in Hisham ibn Abd al-Malik's governorship it reached thirty-six thousand dinars. - واقعہ

A Himyari shaykh who twice witnessed Nubia under Umar: no people sharper in war — one would ask a Muslim 'where would you like me to place my arrow?' and not miss; they lined up one day and shot till eyes were gone — a hundred and fifty gouged eyes counted — so they said nothing better than peace with them, their spoil little and their vexation severe; Umar never made peace with them and kept harassing them until he died, and Abdallah ibn Sa'd made peace with them. At Nubia Mu'awiya ibn Khudayj al-Kindi's eye was lost — he was one-eyed. - واقعہ

تقریباً 670 عیسوی · 50 ھMu'awiya summoned the Syrians to pledge the succession to his son Yazid — the first to bequeath the caliphate to a son and the first to do so in his own lifetime — and wrote to Marwan at Medina to take the pledge. Marwan preached that the caliph wished to appoint Yazid 'after the manner of Abu Bakr and Umar'; Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Bakr rose: 'rather after the manner of Chosroes and Caesar — neither of them gave it to a son or any of their house'. When Muawiya made the hajj in 51 he took the pledge in person: Ibn Umar answered that earlier caliphs had sons no worse than Yazid yet chose for the Muslims, while disclaiming any wish to break the community's staff; Ibn Abi Bakr leapt up vowing to return the matter to shura; Ibn al-Zubayr retorted 'if you are weary of rule, retire and bring your son — whom would we obey if we pledged you both?'. Muawiya then announced from the minbar that the three had 'heard, obeyed and pledged' — which the crowd affirmed and they denied. - واقعہ

His death fell in 49, or on 5 Rabi' I 50, or 51 by the variants. His brother pressed him to name his poisoner; he refused — 'if it is whom I think, God's vengeance is harsher; else let no innocent be killed for me'. On his deathbed he told Husayn that the caliphate had been turned from his father and that prophethood and caliphate would not be joined in them. He had asked Aisha for burial beside the Prophet; she consented, but Marwan barred it — Husayn and his men armed until Abu Hurayra turned him back — and he was buried in al-Baqi beside his mother. Marwan wept at his funeral; when Husayn reproached him he said 'I did that to one more forbearing than this' and pointed to the mountain. - واقعہ

تقریباً 670 عیسوی · تقریباً 50 ھIn al-Baladhuri: Mu'awiya ibn Khudayj sent — or, some say, Mu'awiya ibn Abi Sufyan gave him the Maghreb — Uqba ibn Nafi' al-Fihri, who raided Ifriqiya with ten thousand Muslims, conquered it, and laid out its Qayrawan, whose site was a thicket of trees and thickets unapproachable for beasts, snakes and deadly vermin; Uqba being a righteous man whose prayer was answered, he prayed to his Lord and all that was removed — till the very beasts carried away their young in flight; and Musa ibn Ali said the first to build it was Uqba ibn Nafi', who laid it out then built — the people building houses and dwellings with him — and built its congregational mosque; and a body of Ifriqiya's people told from their shaykhs that when Uqba wished to make Qayrawan a misr he pondered where its mosque should be, and saw in a dream as though a man gave the call to prayer in the place where its minaret stood — so when morning came he built the minarets in the man's station, then built the mosque. Al-Waqidi said Abdallah ibn Sa'd stayed governor until Muhammad ibn Abi Hudhayfa seized Egypt; then Mu'awiya gave Maslama ibn Mukhallad al-Ansari Egypt and the Maghreb, and he gave the Maghreb to his mawla Abu al-Muhajir; when Yazid ibn Mu'awiya ruled he restored Uqba to his office — who raided Sus al-Adna beyond Tangier, roaming unchallenged till he returned; Abu al-Abbas gave Muhammad ibn al-Ash'ath al-Khuza'i Ifriqiya — he repaired Qayrawan's city and mosque — then al-Mansur dismissed him and gave his place to Umar ibn Hafs Hazarmard. - واقعہ

That weighed on Abd al-Malik — loath to abandon a good practice he had established — so he sent to Khalid ibn Yazid ibn Mu'awiya, who said: 'set your heart at ease, Commander of the Faithful: forbid their dinars that they not be traded, strike coinage for the people, and do not relieve these unbelievers of what they hated in the scrolls.' Abd al-Malik said 'you have relieved me, may God relieve you' and struck the dinars. Awana ibn al-Hakam said: the Copts used to mention Christ at scroll-heads attributing divinity to him, placing the cross where the basmala was — hence Rome's king was galled and Abd al-Malik's change weighed on him. Al-Mada'ini via Maslama ibn Muharib: Khalid ibn Yazid counselled Abd al-Malik to forbid their dinars, prevent trading in them, and stop papyrus entering Roman lands — so for a time none was carried to them. - واقعہ

الحرم الإبراهيمي
The great walled sanctuary over the Machpelah cave at Hebron; al-Umari records Abraham buying the plot from Habri for fifty dirhams, then Sarah, Abraham, Rebecca, Isaac, Jacob and Leah buried within, and Solomon raising the enclosure where a pillar of light touched down. It had no door until the Muslims opened one after the conquest; its masonry holds stones thirty-seven spans long. From a door in the qibla, steps descend to a cramped underground passage the author himself crawled through, ending at a chamber with three grave-markers said to be Abraham, his wife and Isaac; the shrine tombs above stand paired — Isaac and Rebecca in the qibla, Abraham and Sarah under facing domes to the north, Jacob under a lone dome. Al-Harawi tells that in King Baldwin's day a spot collapsed in 513 and Franks entered to find the three prophets' bodies leaning against a wall in worn shrouds with lamps at their heads; the king renewed the shrouds and sealed it. Behind the sanctuary lies a grave ascribed to Joseph, kept outside since a voice cried 'he bears Egypt's tribute'.

The Banu Salama mosque of Medina, named 'of the two qiblas' because the qibla was turned in it: Ibn Zabala reports that a man of Banu Salama reached them at dawn prayer with word of the change and they turned mid-prayer to the Kaaba — while al-Zamakhshari and the sira tradition make the change fall at zuhr when the Prophet had prayed two rak'as with his Companions, then turned to face the Mizab, the men and women exchanging places; Ibn Hajar reconciles the reports, and al-Majd notes that on Ibn Zabala's version Quba mosque would better deserve the name.

ديوان الزمام والخاتم
Ibn al-Muqaffa' described the Persian chancery: a royal command stood before the sahib al-tawqi', his servant entered it in a monthly tadhkira which the king sealed and stored; the tawqi' passed to the sahib al-zimam — keeper of the seal — then to the sahib al-'amal, who wrote it as a royal letter, copied it into the register, returned it through the sahib al-zimam to be read against the tadhkira and sealed before the king or his most trusted. Ziyad ibn Abi Sufyan was the first Arab to take a zamam-diwan and a seal, imitating the Persians. The Persian king kept a seal for secrets, for envoys, for perpetuities — sijillat and iqta's and tashrif-letters — and a seal for the kharaj, all with the sahib al-zimam save the seal of secrets sometimes held by a royal intimate; and Khusraw Aparviz, bothered by the smell of the white sheets of accounts, ordered his kharaj-diwan's returns yellowed with saffron and rosewater. - تصور

Baladhuri's digest of the jurists on 'anwa land like the Sawad and al-Sham: Abu Yusuf — if the imam divides it among the conquerors it is 'ushr-land and its folk raqiq; if he leaves it for the Muslims as Umar did the Sawad, jizya on their necks and kharaj on the land — Abu Hanifa's view, ascribed also to Sufyan al-Thawri. Malik and Ibn Abi Dhi'b: a convert keeps his land, working it and paying kharaj. On kharaj-plus-zakah they split (Abu Hanifa forbids the union; Malik, Ibn Abi Dhi'b, Sufyan, Ibn Abi Layla, al-Awza'i allow it), likewise on repeated crops (one kharaj vs Ibn Abi Layla's per-harvest), on a year's neglect (replant or yield it), blight and drowning (kharaj drops), mawat revived ('ushr if rain- or spring-fed, kharaj if fed by kharaj-water), and on old Persian customs (Abu Sa'd preserves what Islam did not annul; Malik and al-Shafi'i abolish them however old). - تصور

Grants ran to thousands of jarib — Hilal ibn Ahwaz's eight thousand, Ibn Umayr's eight thousand — and al-Mansur's surveyors, measuring the Abu Bakra family's hundred-jarib holding at a thousand, left them their hundred and seized the rest. - تصور
الولايات العامة لقبائل قريش في الجاهلية
Suyuti cites Ibn Ishaq: Quraysh had no single king to whom all affairs returned; each clan held a general office under its head. Banu Hashim held the siqaya and rifada — none ate or drank save of their food and drink; Banu Abd al-Dar held the hijaba, the liwa' and the nadwa — none entered the House save by their leave, they bound Quraysh's war banners, and the assembly met for binding or loosing only at Dar al-Nadwa.

الزيوف وقطع الدراهم
The zuyuf were Ajam-struck dirhams, adulterated — Ibn Mas'ud ordered them broken and sold his own baqiyya at a discount till Umar forbade it and he lent it out; Umar and Uthman melted whatever zuyuf the bayt al-mal held into silver. Umar II jailed a man striking off the sultan's die and threw his iron in the fire; Abd al-Malik took another and meant to cut his hand before punishing otherwise — Medina's elders approved. Marwan ibn al-Hakam had cut a dirham-cutter's hand — Zayd ibn Thabit: 'he punished him' — and Aban ibn Uthman at Medina lashed the cutter thirty and paraded him, that for one who hollowed dirhams and salted them with counterfeits. On cutting full-weight dirhams the jurists split: Malik and Ibn Abi Dhi'b disliked and forbade it as corruption; al-Thawri and Abu Hanifa saw no harm where it did not injure Islam and its people — and Ibn Ka'b read Shu'ayb's people's claim to do as they would in their wealth (Hud) as the cutting of dirhams. - ڈیٹاسیٹ

توحيد النقود في عهد عبد الملك
Heraclius's dinars and the Persian Baghliyya dirhams reached Jahiliya Mecca and traded only as bullion: their mithqal twenty-two qirats less a fraction, ten dirhams seven mithqals, the ratl twelve uqiyyas of forty dirhams — weights the Prophet confirmed, and Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman, Ali, and Mu'awiya after him. Mus'ab ibn al-Zubayr struck a few dirhams under Ibn al-Zubayr, later broken; then Abd al-Malik asked and tested, wrote al-Hajjaj to strike dirhams at fifteen qirats of the dinar-qirats, and struck the Damascene dinars — which came to Medina with Companions and Followers there and none objected. Al-Hasan ibn Salih: the Ajam dirhams ran great and small — twenty, twelve, ten qirats — and when Islam needed the mean for zakah they summed forty-two and struck the third, fourteen qirats, so ten Arab dirhams weigh seven mithqals. Quraysh's weights: the dirham for silver, the dinar for gold, ten dirham-weights to seven dinar-weights, the sha'ira a sixtieth of a dirham, the uqiyya forty dirhams, the nashsh twenty, the nawa five — all confirmed when the Prophet entered Mecca.

Abdullah answered: 'rather take three hundred thousand as sulh, write us a deed, and never raid our land while I govern, nor burn nor ruin' — done; and Abd al-Malik, hearing, dismissed him. - واقعہ

Bashir of the Ahtham warned Qutayba — 'you've opened to a treacherous envious man' — dismissed as cousin-envy, though Bashir begged it stand as his excuse. When al-Hajjaj forwarded the letter and the courier rode past the Sakka without stopping, Ibn al-Ahtham sensed the trap and fled to Syria: years peddling wine and flax round his neck, then rag and cotton over one eye, styled Abu Tutayna the oilman — until al-Walid died and Sulayman rose, when he cast off the disguise and preached congratulations to Sulayman with attacks on al-Hajjaj and Qutayba — 'Abu Tutayna the oilman, the most eloquent of men'. Reading the letter, Qutayba struck the Banu Ahtham, killing nine; Bashir said 'remember my excuse' — 'you put one foot forward and held the other back, enemy of God' — and killed them all.

نقل ديوان خراج العراق إلى العربية
In al-Baladhuri via al-Mada'ini from Ali ibn Muhammad ibn Abi Sayf's shaykhs: the diwan of the Sawad's kharaj and all Iraq remained in Persian until al-Hajjaj governed Iraq and took as scribe Zadhanfarrukh ibn Biri, who had with him Salih ibn Abd al-Rahman — mawla of Banu Tamim whose father was among Sijistan's captives — writing before him in Arabic and Persian. Zadhanfarrukh presented Salih to al-Hajjaj who took to him, then confided his fear of displacement — Salih answering that the amir needed him more since none could keep his accounts but himself, and offering: by God, if you wished I could turn the accounts to Arabic. He converted half for display, then feigned illness; al-Hajjaj's physician found nothing wrong and Zadhanfarrukh ordered him to appear. When Zadhanfarrukh was killed in Abd al-Rahman ibn Muhammad ibn al-Ash'ath's days, al-Hajjaj made Salih his scribe; told of the earlier exchange he resolved to make the diwan Arabic and charged Salih with it. Mardanshah ibn Zadhanfarrukh challenged: what will you do for dahwiya and shashwiya? — I write ushr and half-ushr; and wid? — likewise, the surplus being increased; whereupon: may God cut your root from this world as you have cut Persian's root. A hundred thousand dirhams were offered him to feign inability and desist — he refused and translated it. Abd al-Hamid ibn Yahya, Marwan ibn Muhammad's scribe, would say: God reward Salih — how great his favor to the scribes; and Sahl ibn Abi al-Salt said al-Hajjaj gave Salih a deadline until he turned the diwan over. - واقعہ

Granted top-tier stipends, they asked at Basra which clan was nearest the Prophet's kin — 'Banu Tamim' — so they allied them (the Azd having turned them away), took their plots, and dug the canal still called Nahr al-Asawira. Shirawayh had wished Bakr ibn Wa'il; Siyah refused, they settled with Tamim; the Sayabija and Zutt joined and Tamim contested for them — the asawira ending in Banu Sa'd, the Zutt and Sayabija in Banu Hanzala — fighting the polytheists and riding with Ibn Amir to Khurasan. - واقعہ

Thabit 'Qutna' al-Azdi — cotton-plugged for his gouged eye — raged for them; al-Ashras scattered the gathering, jailed and bailed him, then sent him on a posting where the Turks killed him. - واقعہ
قضايا عطاء الورثة والموتى
Al-Zubayr ibn al-Awwam asked Uthman, after Abdallah ibn Mas'ud's death, for Abdallah's stipend — 'his dependents deserve it more than the bayt al-mal' — and took fifteen thousand, being Ibn Mas'ud's executor. Umar II gave an earned stipend to a dead man's heirs; Umar gave two-thirds of a year's stipend to a man who died eight months in. Three mamluks of Banu Affan who witnessed Badr drew three thousand each yearly; Ali enrolled an exposed infant at a hundred; Umar II enrolled Marwan ibn Shuja', still weaning, at ten dinars; and asked when a newborn's share falls due, al-Husayn (or al-Hasan) said 'when he cries out'. - واقعہ

إذن الحمامات بالبصرة
Muslim ibn Abi Bakra drew a thousand dirhams and much food daily from his bathhouse; sick, he willed it to his brother Abd al-Rahman and told him the yield — who disclosed it and asked the Sultan's leave to build his own, baths being built at Basra only by the governors' permission. Leave followed for Ubaydallah ibn Abi Bakra, al-Hakam ibn Abi al-As, Siyah al-Uswari, al-Husayn ibn Abi al-Hurr al-Anbari, Rayta bint Ziyad, Lababa bint Awfa al-Jarashi for two, and al-Munjab ibn Rashid; Muslim recovered to find his yield ruined and kept saying 'may God cut his mercy'. - واقعہ
صياح أهل البصرة بعبد الله بن علي
After al-Mughitha, al-Mansur meant to carve an estate from the batiha and ordered al-Subaytiyya — hateful to Sulayman and the Basrans, who massed at the door of Abdallah ibn Ali, then a fugitive from al-Mansur at his brother Sulayman's, crying 'Commander of the Faithful, come down, we give you bay'a'. Sulayman dispersed them and sent al-Mansur a delegation — Suwayd ibn Abdallah al-Tamimi, al-Anazi, Dawud ibn Abi Hind, Ali ibn Bashir, Sa'id ibn Abi Aruba — with a picture of the batiha, warning the water would turn brackish; al-Mansur held 'I see it otherwise' — then came to Basra and had al-Subaytiyya extracted. - واقعہ

يوم نهاوند فتح الفتوح
In al-Baladhuri: when Yazdgard fled Hulwan in year 19, Persians of Rayy, Qumis, Isbahan, Hamadhan and the Mahayn gathered to him in year 20 under Mardanshah Dhu al-Hajib behind the Dirafsh-i Kabiyan — sixty thousand, some say a hundred thousand. Ammar had written Umar, who meant to march himself, then ordered two-thirds of Kufa out with a Basra detachment and charged al-Nu'man ibn Muqarrin — 'not as tax-gatherer, but as ghazi' — with succession running Hudhayfa, Jarir, al-Mughira, al-Ash'ath; al-Hurmuzan had counseled 'Isbahan is the head, Adharbayjan the wings.' The Muslims chained themselves in tens and fives lest they flee; Persian arrows wounded some before battle. Al-Nu'man announced three banner-shakes — ablution, then swords and shoes, then charge with none turning to another — and fought, his armor heavy, the first martyr, the Persian splitting his mule's belly; Ma'qil found him breathing, washed his face, gave him the tidings of victory — 'praise God; write to Umar.' Hudhayfa took the banner and the conquest was named Fath al-Futuh. Abu Uthman al-Nahdi bore the news to Umar, who wept, hand on head. Al-Sa'ib ibn al-Aqra' held the spoils — 'raise no falsehood, withhold no right' — climbed the fortress on Dhu al-Muwaynatayn's word to the Nukhayrkan treasure, two baskets of unmatched jewels sold at Umar's order to the Qurashi youth Amr ibn Harith for the warriors' shares, who resold one at al-Hira for the whole price and kept the other — his first capital. The conquest fell a Wednesday of year 19, or 20, and via Abu Ma'shar 21; al-Nu'man had camped at al-Isbidhar, al-Ash'ath on the right, al-Mughira the left. - واقعہ
وقعة ريشهر ومقتل شهرك
Shahrak, marzban of Fars, mustered a great host at Rayshahr near Tawwaj; al-Hakam ibn Abi al-As met him with Sawwar ibn Hammam al-Abdi on the vanguard — a fierce fight, with a warden posted at the wadi to kill any fugitive. An aswari champion fleeing begged him 'we fight a God-aided people — see this arrow split a stone, yet it could not have scratched them' — then word came of Shahrak's death: Sawwar had stabbed him off his horse and finished him, and Shahrak's son charged and killed Sawwar. The polytheists routed, Rayshahr fell by force — a day like al-Qadisiyya in its hardship and blessing; Amr ibn al-Ahtam bore the victory-verse to Umar. - واقعہ

Al-Birun's folk, having already sent envoys who truced with al-Hajjaj, brought fodder and opened their city — and Muhammad let no town pass unconquered. Beyond the river before Mihran, the samaniyya of Sarbindis truced for those behind them at a set kharaj; Sahban fell; at Mihran Dahir prepared. Muhammad ibn Mus'ab al-Thaqafi rode on Sadusan with horse and donkey-men; the samaniyya brokered its aman — kharaj, hostages, and four thousand Zutt who joined the army. - واقعہ

بناء المدينة الهاشمية بالكوفة
In al-Baladhuri: Yazid ibn Umar ibn Hubayra built a city at Kufa on the Euphrates and dwelt in it — save a little unfinished — when Marwan's letter came ordering him to shun the Kufans' neighborhood, so he left it and built the palace called Qasr Ibn Hubayra near Sura's bridge. When the Commander of the Faithful Abu al-Abbas rose he occupied that city, finished its pavilions, built in it and named it al-Hashimiyya; the people kept calling it Ibn Hubayra's out of habit, and he said 'I see Ibn Hubayra's name will not drop from it,' abandoned it, built the Hashimite City beside it and dwelt there, then chose al-Anbar where he built his famous city and was buried. Abu Ja'far al-Mansur, succeeding, dwelt in Kufa's Hashimiyya, finished what remained, added building and prepared it as he wished, then moved to Baghdad — founded it as Madinat al-Salam and repaired its old wall from the Tigris to al-Sarat. At al-Hashimiyya al-Mansur imprisoned Abdallah ibn al-Hasan ibn al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Abi Talib over his sons Muhammad and Ibrahim — his grave is there — and built al-Rusafa at Kufa, ordering his mawla Abu al-Khasib Marzuq to build the palace called Abu al-Khasib's on an old foundation — it is also said Abu al-Khasib built it for himself and al-Mansur would visit him there. - واقعہ

Umar wrote back, from Abdallah Umar Commander of the Faithful to Caesar king of the Romans: your envoys spoke true — this tree with us is the tree God grew for Maryam when she bore Isa her son; fear God and take not Isa as a god beside Him. - واقعہ
جمع القرآن في خلافة أبي بكر
Zayd ibn Thabit: Abu Bakr sent for me after the Yamama dead, Umar at his side — 'the killing ran through the people on Yamama's day; I fear it running through the reciters in the stations and much of the Qur'an going — you must compile it'. 'How do a thing the Prophet did not do?' — 'By God, it is good' — till God opened his breast. 'You are a young man of sense, unaccused, who wrote the revelation: follow the Qur'an and gather it' — 'were I tasked to carry a mountain it were no heavier'. So he gathered it from the riqa', the shoulder-bones, the palm-stems and the breasts of men, till he found Bara'a's two closing verses with Khuzayma ibn Thabit alone. - واقعہ
فتح أذربيجان
Al-Mughira came to Kufa as Umar's governor carrying a letter appointing Hudhayfa ibn al-Yaman to Azerbaijan; he marched to Ardabil — the province's city, seat of its marzban and its kharaj — where the marzban had gathered fighters from Bajirwan, Maymadh, al-Narir, Sarat, al-Shiz, al-Miyanij and beyond; they fought the Muslims hard for days, then the marzban treated for all Azerbaijan at eight hundred thousand dirhams weight-eight — no one killed, none captive, no fire-temple razed, and no exposure to the Kurds of Balasajan, Sabalan and Satrudan, nor barring the people of al-Shiz from their feast-music and wonted display; he then raided Muqan and Jilan to tribute. Umar dismissed him for Utba ibn Farqad, who found Ardabil on the covenant but its borderlands in breach — he campaigned, won and plundered. Variants: Waqidi has al-Mughira storm it in 22, Abu Mikhnaf in 20 then al-Ash'ath ibn Qays re-conquering on the same terms, and al-Zuhri gives a hundred-thousand treaty. Umar wrote them to eat only dhabiha and wear only pure fur in that carrion-mixed land. Al-Walid ibn Uqba's dismissal of Utba brought another breach, his 25 AH campaign restoring Hudhayfa's terms; when it rose against al-Ash'ath ibn Qays he hunted it 'meadow by meadow' — the han of their speech — resettled Arab stipendaries to preach Islam, and Sa'id ibn al-As's raids on Muqan and Jilan ended with Jarir al-Bajali crucifying the Armenian-Azerbaijani chief on Bajirwan's keep. - واقعہ
فتح الدينور وماسبذان ومهرجانقذف
In al-Baladhuri: Abu Musa al-Ash'ari returned from Nihawand — where he had marched personally on the Basra levy to reinforce al-Nu'man ibn Muqarrin — to al-Dinawar, staying upon it five days and fighting one; its people accepted jizya and kharaj and asked quarter for themselves, their wealth and children, and he granted it, leaving his agent with horse. Then to Masabadhan — its people did not fight him; the people of al-Sirwan made peace on al-Dinawar's terms, paying jizya and kharaj, and he loosed squadrons through them and mastered its land — some say Abu Musa took Masabadhan before Nihawand's battle. Abu Musa sent Abdallah ibn Qays al-Ash'ari — al-Sa'ib ibn al-Aqra' al-Thaqafi, his son-in-law through his daughter, mother of Muhammad ibn al-Sa'ib — to al-Saymara, city of Mihrajanqadhaf, which he took by treaty on sparing of blood, abandoning of captives and the pardoning of the safra' and bayda' treasures, on jizya and the land's kharaj; he conquered the whole kura of Mihrajanqadhaf, the stronger report being that al-Sa'ib was sent from al-Ahwaz. - واقعہ
فتح همذان
In al-Baladhuri: al-Mughira ibn Shu'ba — Umar's Kufa agent after Ammar ibn Yasir's dismissal — sent Jarir ibn Abdallah al-Bajali to Hamadhan in year 23; its people fought him and held him off, and his eye was struck by an arrow — 'I have counted it with God who beautified my face with it, lit what He willed for me, then took it from me in His cause.' He then took Hamadhan on Nihawand's treaty terms, late in year 23; its people fought and resisted again, and he mastered their land, taking it by force. Al-Waqidi dates Jarir's conquest of Hamadhan to year 24, six months after Umar's death; some relate that al-Mughira himself marched with Jarir on the vanguard, annexing Hamadhan to Kathir ibn Shihab al-Harithi. When Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas governed Kufa for Uthman he made al-Ala ibn Wahb ibn Abd ibn Wahban, of Banu Amir ibn Lu'ayy, governor of Mah and Hamadhan — Hamadhan's people broke faith; he fought them until they submitted to his judgment, and he made peace on their paying the land's kharaj and the heads' jizya plus a hundred thousand dirhams for the Muslims, with no trespass on wealth, honor or children. - واقعہ

In al-Baladhuri: when the Muslims finished the affair of Jalula's battle, Hashim ibn Utba joined heavy horse to Jarir ibn Abdallah al-Bajali, stationed at Jalula as a screen between the Muslims and their enemy; Sa'd then sent some three thousand, ordering him to rise with them and his men for Hulwan. As he neared it Yazdgard fled toward Isbahan; Jarir took Hulwan by treaty — staying his hand, securing their blood and wealth, and letting whoever wished flee go unmolested. He left Uzra ibn Qays ibn Ghaziyya al-Bajali at Hulwan, marched on al-Dinawar which he did not take, and conquered Qarmasin on Hulwan's terms; he then stayed governing at Hulwan until Ammar ibn Yasir came to Kufa — Umar having ordered him to reinforce Abu Musa al-Ash'ari — leaving Uzra over Hulwan and marching to Abu Musa in year 19; a group of Jarir's descendants settled Hulwan, whose posterity remain there. - واقعہ
فتح أصبهان
In al-Baladhuri: Umar sent Abdallah ibn Budayl ibn Warqa' al-Khuza'i to Isbahan in year 23 — or wrote Abu Musa ordering his dispatch — and Abdallah took Jayy by treaty after fighting: its people to pay kharaj and jizya, secured in their persons and wealth save the arms in their hands; al-Ahnaf ibn Qays of his army was sent to al-Yahudiyya, which treated on the same terms, and Ibn Budayl mastered Isbahan's land and tasasij, governing until a year of Uthman's caliphate passed, when Uthman made al-Sa'ib ibn al-Aqra' governor. Ibn Ishaq relates that Isbahan's marzban, an old man called al-Fadhusfan, was besieged and the cityfolk betrayed him; choosing thirty trusted archers he slipped out toward Kirman to join Yazdgard. Word reached Ibn Budayl who pursued with heavy horse; the Persian turned on a height: 'hold yourself — not one of you drops without an arrow; charge and we shoot; or grant us a champion and we will duel.' They duelled — a blow fell on his saddle-bow breaking it and cutting the girth-straps — then Ibn Budayl said: 'I would not love your death, for I see you wise and brave; what say you to returning with me that I treat with you for your townspeople's jizya — who stays is dhimmi, who flees is unmolested — and you surrender the city?' He returned, opened Jayy and kept his word, saying 'O people of Isbahan, I saw you slackening for days — you earned what I did to you.' Ibn Budayl traversed Isbahan's plain and mountain, mastering it, treating its kharaj as al-Ahwaz had been treated — the conquest falling in parts of years 23 and 24. Another version has Umar sending Ibn Budayl to join Abu Musa — Qumm and Qashan taken — and together raiding Isbahan, al-Ahnaf on Abu Musa's vanguard, both taking al-Yahudiyya then Jayy, mastering the land — the soundest report being Abu Musa took Qumm and Qashan and Ibn Budayl Jayy and al-Yahudiyya. Isbahan's nobles held strongholds at Jafrabadh in Greater al-Thaymara rustaq at Bahjawarsan and a fortress called Marbin; when Jayy fell they entered obedience paying kharaj, and scorning the jizya, they embraced Islam. - واقعہ

Among Maysan's captives were Abu al-Hasan al-Basri and his brother Sa'id, sons of Yasar once named Qayruz; they fell to an Ansari woman — al-Rabi' bint al-Nadr, Anas's aunt, or Jamila of Salima, Anas's wife — who freed them, so 'our wala' is hers'. - واقعہ

Umar made Utba ibn Farqad al-Sulami governor of Mosul in year 20; Nineveh's people fought, he took its eastern fort by force, crossed the Tigris, and the other fortress treated for jizya with leave to quit; Mosul's monasteries treated likewise, then al-Marj, Bahadhra, Hibtun, al-Hiyana, al-Ma'alla, Damir and every Kurdish stronghold, Banu Ata of Hizza, Tall al-Shaharija and al-Salaq — Salih ibn Ubada holding Mosul's ribat — with Urmiya, al-Hawr, Khuway and Salamas paying Mosul a while. Umar dismissed him for Harthama ibn Arfaja al-Bariqi, who made it a misr, settled the Arabs in their plots and built the congregational mosque; Ibn Tulayd paved it with stone and Sa'id ibn Abd al-Malik built the wall al-Rashid later razed. - واقعہ

Umar saw him and said 'we are God's and to Him we return'; Urwa answered 'rather praise God — we are victorious,' told his tale, and when asked why he did not send word answered 'I left my brother and wished to come myself' — so Umar named him al-Bashir.

Mansur ibn Hatim saw the broken mast, and al-Mu'tasim's governor Anbasa ibn Ishaq al-Dabbi razed the minaret's top for a prison before his removal; his successor Harun ibn Abi Khalid was killed there. - واقعہ
وفاة أبي بكر الصديق
Ibn Umar: the cause of Abu Bakr's death was the Prophet's death — grief wasted him till he died. And he had eaten with al-Harith ibn Kalada a gifted khazira — 'lift your hand: by God, a year's poison is in it, and you and I die in one day' — both sickened and died in one day at the year's end; al-Sha'bi: 'what do we expect of this low world — the Prophet was poisoned and Abu Bakr was poisoned'. Aisha: his illness began with a bath on a cold Monday, seven nights past of Jumada II; he fevered fifteen days without coming to prayer and died Tuesday night, eight nights remaining of Jumada II, year thirteen, aged sixty-three. At his death he told Aisha: 'look at the she-camel whose milk we drank, the bowl we breakfasted from, the wrap we wore — we used them while we held the Muslims' charge: when I die, return them to Umar' — 'may God mercy you, Abu Bakr: you have wearied who comes after you'. - واقعہ
مقتل يزدجرد بن شهريار
In al-Baladhuri: Yazdgard ibn Shahriyar ibn Kisra Abarwiz ibn Hurmuz ibn Anushirwan fled al-Mada'in to Hulwan, then Isbahan, then — after Nihawand — Istakhr; Ibn Budayl pursued without catching him, Abu Musa tried Istakhr and could not take it, and Uthman ibn Abi al-As failed likewise, so that when Abdallah ibn Amir reached Basra in year 29 all Fars was conquered save Istakhr and Jur. Yazdgard meant for Tabaristan — its marzban having offered its strength — then fled to Kirman; Ibn Amir sent Mujashi' ibn Mas'ud al-Sulami and Harm ibn Hayyan after him, but the damaq struck his camp at Bimandh, destroying the army save a few — the fort named Qasr Mujashi'. Yazdgard, seated at Kirman, would not speak to its marzban for hauteur and had his leg dragged — 'you are not fit to govern a village, let alone a kingdom; had God known good in you He would not have brought you to this' — then went to Sijistan whose king honored him until, asked for kharaj, he feigned deafness, and moved on to Khurasan. At Marw's border the marzban Mahuwayh received him with honor, and Nizak Tarkhan lodged and robed him a month — then wrote asking his daughter in marriage; enraged, Yazdgard answered 'you are but my slave — what emboldens you?' and ordered Mahuwayh's accounts audited. Mahuwayh wrote Nizak inciting him: 'he came beaten and fugitive, you honored him, and this is his answer' — and together they moved to kill him. Nizak came with the Turks to al-Janabidh; the fight held even then turned — his companions were slain and camp plundered. Marw's city refused him entry; he dismounted and walked to a miller's house on the Arghab. It is said Mahuwayh's men slew him there; or he incited the miller, killed him, then had the miller killed since 'a king's slayer should not live'; or the miller fed him, plied him drink till drunken, spied his crown at evening, coveted it, and dropped a millstone on him — taking crown and robes and casting him in the water, whereupon Mahuwayh killed the miller and household; or, hiding in the water he bargained 'release me for my belt, seal and crown,' laughed when told bread cost four dirhams — 'I was told I would need four dirhams' — and when Mahuwayh's seekers came begged 'do not kill me; take me to the Arabs' king to treat for myself and you' — refused, they strangled him with a bowstring, sacked his clothes and cast his body in the water.

Hassan's march on Jadis: the carried-tree ruse foiling Zarqa' al-Yamama's sight, the dawn massacre at Jaww, king al-Aswad ibn Ghaffar's flight to Tayy', and the seeress crucified on the town's gate — renaming it al-Yamama. - واقعہ
حفر نهر عدي
Adi ibn Arta'a, Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz's governor, consulted the Basrans on digging a canal — Wak'i ibn Abi Sud wrote 'no canal, no home'; some say Adi's aim was to spite Bahz ibn Yazid ibn al-Muhallab. Umar's permission came, the canal was dug from Butq Shirin, the people came out to watch, and Adi bore al-Hasan al-Basri on the dam as he pointed. - واقعہ
حفر نهر الأبلة
Dijlat al-Awra's tidal rain-channel ran a farsakh, its Basra-side basin called al-Ijana; Umar ordered Abu Musa to dig the Basrans a canal — he began at al-Ijana, led it three farsakhs to Basra, making the Ubulla canal four — then the reach toward al-Hayri silted up. Ziyad, on the diwan under Abdallah ibn Amir, urged completing the dig and was stalled till Ibn Amir left for Khurasan; he resumed Abu Musa's channel to Basra with Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Bakra in charge, who opened the water racing his horse as it nearly outran him. Ibn Amir returned angry — 'you meant to carry off the canal's fame' — and the estrangement held between their houses for life; before the canal, folk drank from Dayr Qawus on the Tigris, a spot the spirits haunted. - واقعہ
حفر نهر ابن عمر
Abdallah ibn Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz, Yazid ibn al-Walid's governor, received the Basrans with two flasks — Basra water and batiha water — and saw the difference: 'dig us a canal and we drink this sweet'. He wrote Yazid, who answered 'if the canal's cost reaches Iraq's kharaj, spend what we hold on it'; Nahr Ibn Umar was dug, and when a man guessed the cost at three hundred thousand, Ibn Umar said 'were it Iraq's whole kharaj, I would spend it'. - واقعہ
حفر نهر معقل
Umar ordered Abu Musa to dig the second canal run by Ma'qil ibn Yasar al-Muzani — so it bore his name; others say al-Mundhir ibn al-Jarud asked Mu'awiya for the Tharr canal, he wrote Ziyad, who dug and ran it through Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Bakra or another — and when it was done he sent Ma'qil to open it for baraka as a Companion, so the people called it Ma'qil's canal. Ziyad gave a man a thousand dirhams: 'go down the Tigris and ask who owns this canal — if anyone says Ziyad's, the thousand is yours'; he returned — 'not one I asked said anything but Ma'qil's canal'. - واقعہ
تدوين الديوان وفرض العطاء
Umar consulted the Muslims on writing a diwan — Ali: 'divide each year all you gather, keep nothing'; Uthman: 'much wealth — uncounted, who took and who did not will go unmarked'; al-Walid ibn Hisham ibn al-Mughira: 'I saw Syria's kings with a diwan and an army — write a diwan, raise an army'. He took the last, and called Quraysh's genealogists — Aqil ibn Abi Talib, Makhrama ibn Nawfal, Jubayr ibn Mut'im — 'write the people by their ranks'. They began with Banu Hashim, then Abu Bakr's folk, then Umar's by the caliphate — 'I would it were so,' said Umar, 'but begin with the Prophet's kin, nearest then nearest, till you set Umar where God set him'. Banu Adi came arguing for his primacy — 'bakh, bakh, Banu Adi: you would eat off my back and take my hasanat — my two companions walked a road and I will not differ; we won favour and reward only through Muhammad, our honour and the noblest Arabs, then nearest then nearest; by God, if the Ajam come with works and we without, they are worthier of him on the Last Day — the slow of deed is not sped by lineage'. - واقعہ
آل الفضل بن ماهان بسندان
Al-Fadl ibn Mahan, mawla of Banu Sama, took Sindan and held it — sent al-Ma'mun an elephant, wrote him, and prayed for him in a jami' mosque he built there. His son Muhammad sailed seventy bawarij to Mayd al-Hind, slew many and returned — to find his brother Mahan had seized Sindan; Mahan wrote al-Mu'tasim and gifted a teak plank unmatched for size. The Hind faction in his brother's affair turned, killed and crucified him, then took Sindan and broke its mosque where Muslims had prayed for the caliph. - واقعہ

فتح أصطخر عنوة
Ibn Amir marched on Istakhr in 28h — Mahak truced for its folk, he left for Jur, and they broke and killed his agent; Jur fallen, he returned and took Istakhr by storm after heavy fighting and mangonels — forty thousand Ajam killed, most house-holders and asawira chiefs who had sheltered there destroyed, some say near a hundred thousand. On his vanguard Ubaydallah ibn Ma'tar al-Taymi had met them at Bramjard and fallen, buried in Bramjard's garden; Ibn Amir hurried — Abu Barza al-Aslami right, Ma'qil ibn Yasar left, Imran ibn al-Husayn horse, Khalid ibn al-Mu'ammar foot — and drove them inside. In another telling they betrayed under Ibn Abbas's Iraq governorship for Ali and were reconquered. - واقعہ

Ibn Amir besieged Abarshahr — Naysabur's city — for months, each quarter under its own warden; one quarter-warden took aman to admit the Muslims by night, they opened the gate, and the marzban fortified in the qahandaz, then sought aman to compound for all Naysabur on a fixed wazifa — concluded at a million dirhams, some say seven hundred thousand. Qays ibn al-Haytham al-Sulami was made its governor at the conquest. - واقعہ
سقوط تستر وأسر هرمزان
Nine hundred fell in the battle and six hundred captives were beheaded after; then a Persian sought aman to show the Muslims the breach — converted, stipended for himself and his son — and led Ashras ibn Awf of Shayban across Dujayl on a stone weir, up the city, and pointed out Hurmuzan. Forty volunteers under Majza'a ibn Thawr with two hundred behind entered by night, killed the guard and cried takbir on the wall; Hurmuzan fled to his treasury-citadel, Abu Musa crossed at dawn and possessed the city — 'none taught the Arabs our weakness but one who saw their rising fortune and our waning' — while the defector killed his own family and cast them into Dujayl. Hurmuzan asked aman; Abu Musa gave it only on Umar's judgment, and he came down on that. - واقعہ

أول قطع الدرب
In al-Baladhuri: they differ on who first cut the Darb — the Baghras pass — some saying it was Maysara ibn Masruq al-Absi, sent by Abu Ubayda ibn al-Jarrah, who met a Byzantine gathering with musta'riba of Ghassan, Tanukh and Iyad making to join Heraclius, fell on them and killed a great slaughter, after which Malik al-Ashtar al-Nakha'i joined him as reinforcement from Abu Ubayda at Antioch; others say the first to cut it was Umayr ibn Sa'd al-Ansari when he went out on the matter of Jabala ibn al-Ayham; and Abu al-Khattab al-Azdi heard that Abu Ubayda himself led the summer raid, passing Masisa and Tarsus — their people having evacuated with the forts beyond — and crossed the pass reaching Zanda, while others say he merely sent Maysara ibn Masruq who reached Zanda. - واقعہ

حدوث البطائح
In al-Baladhuri: the Persians used to foretell their kingdom's end, relating earthquakes and floods among its signs; the Tigris had flowed into Basra's Tigris called al-Mawra' in branching channels. Under Qubad ibn Fayruz a great breach opened in lower Kaskar and was neglected until its waters drowned many cultivated lands — Qubad being weak and little attentive — until his son Anushirwan had it dammed with embankments and some lands returned to cultivation. Then in the year the Prophet sent Abdallah ibn Hudhayfa al-Sahmi to Khosrow Aparviz — year 7, some say 6 — the Euphrates and Tigris rose in a flood unseen before or after; great breaches burst. Aparviz strained to dam them but the water defeated him, spread to the Bata'ih's site, covered buildings and crops and drowned several tasasij. Khosrow rode out himself to plug the breaches, scattered money over the execution-hides, worked the laborers to death and crucified — it is said — forty diggers on one breach in a day; yet he found no device against the water. Then the Arabs entered Iraq, the Persians were consumed by war, the breaches burst unattended and the dihqans proved too weak to dam the greatest — so the Batayih widened and grew. - واقعہ
تأسيس مدينة السلام بغداد
In al-Baladhuri: Baghdad was ancient, and al-Mansur garrisoned it, beginning his city in year 145; when news of Muhammad and Ibrahim ibn Abdallah's rising reached him he returned to Kufa, then moved the treasury houses, coffers and diwans from Kufa to Baghdad in 146, naming it Madinat al-Salam; he finished the city wall and all its works, and the old Baghdad wall, in 147. He bought the city's ground from village-owners of Baduraya, Qatrabull, Nahr Buq and Nahr Bin, granted it in iqta' to his family, commanders, troops, companions and secretaries, made the markets' gathering at al-Karkh and ordered the merchants to build shops, obliging them their rents; he built Madinat al-Salam's two mosques and the new pontoon on al-Sarat, and built al-Rusafa for al-Mahdi on the east side — called Askar al-Mahdi from his camping there bound for Rayy — occupied on return in 151; earlier he had ordered Qasr al-Waddah built, named for an Anbar man who financed it, and Qasr al-Mahdi by Bab al-Karkh. - واقعہ

Then he founded a city he named al-Mutawakkiliyya, between Karkh Fayruz and Qatul Kisra, absorbing the hamlet called al-Ma'huza, built its mosque, granted its qati'as and dwelt there in the first of 246 — a few months after founding it — dying there in Shawwal 247; al-Muntasir succeeded that night and moved back to Sur man Ra'a on Tuesday the tenth of Shawwal. - واقعہ

بناء مدينة سيسر
In al-Baladhuri: Sisar was named for lying in the lows between thirty hilltops — 'thirty heads' — called Sisar Sadkhaniye, 'thirty heads and a hundred springs,' its springs forming a hundred. It and its environs were ever pastures for the Kurds' cattle, holding meadows for the caliph al-Mahdi's herd-beasts and flocks under his mawla Sulayman ibn Qayrat — owner of Sahrat Qayrat at Madinat al-Salam — and his partner Salam al-Tayfuri, Tayfur having been Abu Ja'far al-Mansur's mawla gifted to al-Mahdi. When brigands and robbers multiplied in al-Hadi's caliphate they made the tract their refuge — being the border of Hamadhan, al-Dinawar and Adharbayjan — cutting the roads and sheltering there unmolested; Sulayman and Salam wrote al-Mahdi complaining of the exposure of the beasts and flocks in their charge, and he sent a great army and ordered them to build a city to shelter themselves, their helpers and herdsmen, and to fortify the beasts and flocks within — so they built Sisar, fortified and peopled it, annexing the rustaqs of Manharaj from al-Dinawar, al-Jawdhama from Adharbayjan's Barza kura, Rustaf and Khabanjir, making it a kura under its own amil who received its kharaj. When brigands again multiplied under al-Rashid and wrecked Sisar he ordered its repair and fortification, stationing a thousand men of al-Khaqan's followers under the mawla al-Sufdi — descendants remain. In al-Rashid's last days Murra ibn Ali al-Rudhayni al-Ijli was set over it; Uthman al-Awdi failed to wrest it from him while Murra took most of Adharbayjan from him; Murra kept paying Sisar's kharaj under Muhammad ibn al-Rashid on a muqata'a until the fitna, and it was taken from Asim ibn Murra under al-Ma'mun, returning to the caliphal estates. - واقعہ
تأسيس واسط
In al-Baladhuri: al-Hajjaj founded the city of Wasit in year 83 or 84, building its mosque, palace and Green Dome — it was reed-land, whence 'Wasit al-Qasab', equidistant from al-Ahwaz, Basra and Kufa; Ibn al-Qirriyya quipped 'he built it in a land not his own and will leave it to sons not his own.' A Wasit shaykh related that when finished al-Hajjaj wrote Abd al-Malik: 'I have founded a city in a karsh of land between the mountain and the two garrison towns and named it Wasit' — hence the Wasitis are called al-Karshiyyin. Before founding it he had meant to move al-Sin's people from Kaskar and dug Nahr al-Sin, then reconsidered, founded Wasit, dug the Nil and Zabi canals, revived their lands and founded the city called al-Nil. He seized Abdallah ibn Darraj's estates — reclaimed deadland, stagnant waters, springs and reed-beds marked with milestones under his Kufa kharaj office with al-Mughira — cleared their reeds and took them for Abd al-Malik, cultivating them; and he stripped doors from Zantaward, al-Dawqara, Dar Awsat, Dayr Masarjasan and Sharabit for his palace and Wasit's congregational mosque — those cities protested 'you have preferred us over our own cities and wealth,' and he paid them no heed. - واقعہ

حفر نهر الأنبار
In al-Baladhuri: Anbar's dihqans asked Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas to dig them a canal they had already asked Persia's lord to dig; he wrote to Sa'd ibn Amr ibn Haram ordering it dug — the men dug until reaching a mountain that could not be cut, and left it. When al-Hajjaj governed Iraq he gathered labourers from every quarter and told his overseers 'see what a digger eats in a day — if it weighs what he hews out, do not hold back from digging,' and they spent on it till finished; that mountain was named for al-Hajjaj and the river for Sa'd ibn Amr ibn Haram. Al-Khayzuran, mother of the caliphs, ordered the canal called Mahdud dug — she named it al-Rayyan — her agent dividing it into sections, each section bounded and a crew assigned to dig it, whence 'Mahdud'; as for the river called Shayla, the sons of Shayla ibn Farrukhzadhan al-Marwazi claim Sapur dug it for their grandfather when he installed him as nighya of Anbar's tassuj — while others say it was named for a man called Shayla who contracted its digging and held a mabqala over it in al-Mansur's days, the canal having been long buried. - واقعہ

دار الضرب وسكك الحجاج
Al-Hajjaj struck dirhams at the end of 75h and ordered them struck in all regions in 76h. 'Awana ibn al-Hakam: he asked how the Persians struck dirhams, took a mint-house, gathered the minters, struck the sultan's money from bullion and the purifications of zuyuf, sattuqa and bahraja, then licensed merchants' sheets for a fee and sealed the minters' hands. He struck 'ali dirhams marked 'bismillah, al-Hajjaj', then 'God is one, God the eternal' — the jurists disliked them and they were called makruha, or so the Ajam called them for their short weight; the Sumayriyya were named for their first striker. Mus'ab had struck dirhams by Ibn al-Zubayr's order in 70h on the Kisra-type marked 'baraka wa-'afiya' — al-Hajjaj altered them — and, per Ibn al-Kalbi, dinars too; al-Harith ibn Abdallah ibn Abi Rabi'a struck wazn-sab'a in Ibn al-Zubayr's days. Abd al-Malik first struck gold after the Year of Union, 74h (some dinars in 72, then 75). Then Umar ibn Hubayra refined the silver beyond his predecessors and bore hard on the changers; Khalid al-Qasri harder; Yusuf ibn Umar hardest — cut hands and flogged backs — so the Hubayriyya, Khalidiyya and Yusufiyya were the best Umayyad coin, the only Umayyad dirhams al-Mansur accepted for kharaj, whence the first dirhams were called makruha. - واقعہ

Yazid sent Hayyan, Masmala's mawla of Daylami captivity, who told the Ispahbadh 'I am a man of yours to you, though religion parts us; you cannot stand Khurasan's armies, and I found Yazid quick to terms' — he worked him till Yazid treated for seven hundred thousand dirhams and four hundred qirats of saffron; the Ispahbadh demanded weight-six, Hayyan bore the difference — a noble and leading mawla, called Abu Ma'mar. - واقعہ

Then 'what say you, Anas?' — 'I left a fierce force behind; count him a dog: kill it and the folk despair of life and grow fiercer, spare it and they hope.' Umar marvelled — Bara' and Majza'a had warned Anas not to kill him; doubting whether 'no harm' licensed the speech, Anas went out and al-Zubayr bore witness for him.

Tamim rose at Herat and killed Ibn Khazim's son Muhammad; the father took Uthman ibn Bashir ibn al-Muhtafiz and slew him in cold blood, with a Tamimi. Tamim conspired his deposition — Bujayr ibn Waraqa's party shifted to Abarshahr and renounced him as he sent his baggage with Musa to Tirmidh. Abd al-Malik's writ appointing him arrived; he fed the messenger the letter: 'I could not meet God having broken my bay'a to the son of the Prophet's hawari and given bay'a to the son of his exile'. Abd al-Malik gave it to Bukayr ibn Wishah — who had already deposed him, seized arms and treasury, and won Marw's bay'a. Marching for Tirmidh, Ibn Khazim was overtaken by Bujayr near Marw; Waki' ibn al-Dawraqiyya came out in arms and with Bujayr stabbed him, sat on his chest crying 'for Duwayla's vengeance' — his slain half-brother — as Ibn Khazim spat 'curse you: you kill Mudar's ram for a brother not worth a palm of date-stones', and Waki' answered in verse. His sons Anbasa and Yahya fell with him, his mawla Tahman — grandfather of the Mahdi's secretary Ya'qub ibn Dawud — was wounded; Bukayr sent his head to be displayed at Damascus and his severed right hand to Uthman ibn Bashir's sons. - واقعہ

Sulayman ibn Marthad told him the covenant was worthless — its issuer could not stay himself — and they agreed to let Ibn al-Zubayr arbitrate; six months on, Urwa ibn Qatiba brought Ibn Khazim the governorship — and Sulayman refused it: 'Ibn al-Zubayr is no caliph, only a man sheltering at the House'. Six thousand against fifteen thousand, cries 'humr la yunsarun' against 'ya nasr iqtarib' — Sulayman fell to Qays ibn Asim al-Sulami, who took his head; his remnant under Umar ibn Marthad at Talaqan was destroyed next. When Rabi'a gathered to Aws ibn Tha'laba at Herat, Ibn Khazim left Musa over Marw and marched — the Turks exploiting their strife to raid near Naysabur — had Aws poisoned, and before battle urged his men to stab the horses' nostrils, 'no horse ever endured that and stayed'; Aws, already ailing, took a wound and died days later. - واقعہ

Abu Musa marched on panic-struck Jundishapur; they asked aman and he truced: no killing, no captives, no hands on wealth but weapons. A band of its folk went off to al-Kalbaniyya — al-Rabi' ibn Ziyad killed them and took it; and the asawira sought aman, were granted it, and converted. - واقعہ
فتح كابل وإسلام ملكها في أيام المأمون
The Mahdi's and Rashid's agents took Sijistan's atawa from Rutbil as strength allowed, posting their own men over the marches Islam had lost. Under al-Ma'mun at Khurasan the atawa came doubled, Kabul was opened, its king showed Islam and obedience, the governor's agent entered, the post-road was joined, and fresh myrobalan was sent him from it — and the land held steady for a time. - واقعہ
نكث أهل كابل ومقتل يزيد بن زياد
Kabul's folk broke and captured Abu Ubayda ibn Ziyad; Yazid ibn Ziyad marched on them at Junza and fell with many of his men — among the slain Zayd ibn Abdallah ibn Abi Mulayka al-Qurashi and Sila ibn Ashyam Abu al-Sahba' al-Adawi, husband of Mu'adha al-Adawiyya. Salm ibn Ziyad sent Talha ibn Abdallah ibn Khalaf al-Khuza'i — Talhat al-Talhat — who ransomed Abu Ubayda for five hundred thousand dirhams, then governed Sijistan for Salm, levying and rewarding his followers until he died there; a Yashkuri deputy was expelled by the Mudaris, factionalism broke out, each tribe seized its own town — and Rutbil took hope. - واقعہ
إذعان كابل شاه للمأمون
Al-Ma'mun loosed the troops on Sughd, Ushrusana and Farghana's breachers with incessant raids and daw'a letters; a force sent to Kabul Shah drew his tribute and submission — and the post-road ran till green myrobalan reached the caliph as fresh fruit. - واقعہ
شأن كاوس ملك أشروسنة ووقعة القهرمان
Kawus of Ushrusana bought peace from al-Fadl ibn Sahl, then broke it once al-Ma'mun reached Baghdad. His favored qahrman — married into al-Fadl ibn Kawus's line — exalted al-Fadl while demeaning Haydar ibn Kawus, al-Afshin-to-be, who leapt on him and killed him at the city gate, then fled to Hashim ibn Mahwayh al-Khuttali for intercession. Hearing worse from home, Haydar showed Islam, came to Baghdad, made Ushrusana's conquest sound easy to al-Ma'mun, and showed him a short road. - واقعہ
خراسان في خلافة علي
Mahwiya, marzban of Marw, came to Ali in his caliphate at Kufa; Ali wrote the dahqans, asawira and dahshalarin to render him the jizya — whereupon Khurasan broke away. Ali sent Ja'da ibn Hubayra al-Makhzumi, his mother Umm Hani' bint Abi Talib, who could not recover it; Khurasan never wore cloth again till Ali's death. Abu Ubayda: Ali's first agent was Abd al-Rahman ibn Abra, Khuza'a's mawla, then Ja'da. - واقعہ
استدعاء ملك خوارزم قتيبة على أخيه
Khwarizm's king, weak, with his brother Khurrazad risen strong against him, sent Qutayba an offer: so much money and the keys, if Qutayba would make him king over his lands instead. Khwarizm is three cities ringed by Fariqin, Madinat al-Fil the strongest — Ali ibn Mujahid says Madinat al-Fil is Samarqand — where the king took his seat and sent on the money. - واقعہ
تدبير قتيبة أمر خوارزم
Qutayba sent his brother Abd al-Rahman ibn Muslim against Khurrazad — killed, with four thousand prisoners slain — and restored the first king on the agreed terms; his own people, calling him weak, killed him, whereupon Qutayba gave Khwarizm to his brother Ubaydallah ibn Muslim. - واقعہ
مقتل معن بن زائدة
Fearing winter's onset Ma'n withdrew to Bust; Kharijites who resented his rule slipped among the builders at his house, hid their swords in reed bundles at roofing-time, and entered his dome while he was being cupped — they butchered him, one splitting his belly with a dagger, Abu al-Ghulam al-Taqi striking his head. Yazid ibn Mazyad killed every one of them, then held Sijistan, bearing hard on its Arabs and Ajam until forged letters to al-Mansur — that the Mahdi's letters confused him — brought his dismissal, imprisonment and confiscation. Later released, he lay hidden in Madinat al-Salam until Kharijites met him on the bridge and he fought them; then he rose to Yusuf al-Barm in Khurasan. - واقعہ
فتح كرمان
Uthman ibn Abi al-As met Kirman's marzban at Abr Kawan by night and killed him — Kirman weakened and hearts dismayed. Ibn Amir sent Mujashi' ibn Mas'ud after Yazdgard to Bimand, where his army perished; left in charge when Ibn Amir marched for Khurasan, Mujashi' took Bimand by force — sparing its folk on aman; his Qasr Mujashi' stands there — took Burukharwa, then al-Shirjan, Kirman's chief city: days of siege, a horse-sally, taken by storm, a man left behind and many of its people exiled. Abu Musa had earlier sent al-Rabi' ibn Ziyad round al-Shirjan, trucing Bamm and the Andaghar — betrayed, Mujashi' retook them, took Jirraft by force, and rode Kirman till it was tamed. - واقعہ

فتح قتيبة مدينة الفيل
Qutayba took Madinat Fil — opened earlier by Umayya ibn Abdallah, then breached, and Yazid ibn al-Muhallab's assault failed — whence Ka'b al-Ashthari's verse: 'Fil gave itself to you with her own hands, and well she deserved'. - واقعہ
صلح نهاوند وماه دينار
In al-Baladhuri: when the Persian army was routed and Hudhayfa commanded, Nihawand was besieged — its people sallied and were beaten — until Simak ibn Ubayd al-Absi chased a man with eight riders, killing each as he turned, till the man alone sued for quarter, cast his weapon and was taken; speaking Persian he asked through a translator to be brought to the commander — 'I will make peace over this land, pay jizya, and give you what you wish for sparing me' — his name was Dinar. Hudhayfa made treaty with him on kharaj and jizya, securing the people of Nihawand in their wealth, orchards and homes — hence Nihawand was called Mah Dinar, and Dinar would visit Simak thereafter, giving gifts. Nihawand had been a Kufa conquest and al-Dinawar a Basra one; when Kufa's Muslims multiplied, al-Dinawar was made over to them and Nihawand compensated to Basra (being of Isbahan's kura), the kharaj differential going to Kufa — whence Nihawand 'Mah Basra' and al-Dinawar 'Mah Kufa' — under Mu'awiya's caliphate. - واقعہ
بناء المحفوظة والمنصورة
With Hind apostatized save Qassa's folk and no refuge left, al-Hakam ibn Awana al-Kalbi built al-Mahfuza beyond the lake — Syrian Kalbi shaykhs naming it Dimashq or Hims till one said Tadmur and drew 'God destroy you, fool — it is al-Mahfuza'. Amr ibn Muhammad ibn al-Qasim, his trusted deputy, raided from it and built al-Mansura below the lake — the governors' seat today — while al-Hakam won back enemy holdings to general approval. Khalid marvelled: 'I gave them the Arabs' most generous youth and they rejected him — the most miserly, accepted' — and al-Hakam was killed there. At the da'wa's dawn Abu Muslim gave the frontier to Mughallis al-Abdi, who set out via Tukharistan. - واقعہ
استمالة المأمون وجند المعتصم لأهل ما وراء النهر
Al-Ma'mun's Khurasan agents campaigned the unsubmitted while his envoys enrolled willing Transoxanians — their kings' sons included — in the diwan, honored and raised in stipend at court. Al-Mu'tasim kept the same till most of his army's standing troops were Sughdians, Faraghanis, Ushrusanis and Shashis, their kings attending his gate; Islam prevailed there and they raided the Turks beyond them. Abdallah ibn Tahir's son Tahir opened lands of al-Fuziyya none had reached before; and Ibn Ayyash holds Qutayba settled Arabs beyond the river as far as Farghana and al-Shash. - واقعہ
نقش معن بن زائدة على خاتم الخلافة
Ma'n ibn Za'ida engraved on the caliphal seal and took money from Kufa's kharaj. Umar's order to al-Mughira ibn Shu'ba: 'obey my messenger in him' — and before the seated assembly the messenger had a jami'a put on his neck and dragged hard, then jailed him in the reed-prison. Ma'n sent home for his she-camel, his jariya and his Qutwani abaya, rode out by night, lay hid till the search died, and came to Umar waking the tahajjud-men for dawn prayer — 'I come repentant' — 'You?!' After the prayer Umar put it to the assembly: 'cut his hand', said one; 'crucify him', said another; Ali said 'a man lied a lie — his punishment is in his skin', so Umar flogged him hard and jailed him. A Qurashi friend begged his release — 'you reminded me of the stabbing: bring Ma'n' — beaten again and returned to jail, till he told every friend 'do not mention me to the Commander'. Later Umar remembered, shared with him, and let him go. - واقعہ
حملة معن بن زائدة على رتبيل
Al-Mansur gave Sijistan to Ma'n ibn Za'ida al-Shaybani, who demanded of Rutbil the atawa al-Hajjaj had settled; Rutbil sent camels, Turkish tents and slaves, doubled in value — which enraged Ma'n. With Yazid ibn Mazyad on the van he marched on Rukhkhaj; Rutbil had left to summer in Zabulistan, which Ma'n took with mass captives, among them the boy Faraj al-Rukhkhaji — who told how a cloud of dust raised by wild asses' hooves looked to Ma'n like an army coming to wrest the captives, so he put them to the sword until he saw the donkeys and stopped; 'I saw my father bent over me saying: kill me, not my son'. The captives ran near thirty thousand. Mawand, Rutbil's deputy, sought aman to be borne to the Commander of the Faithful — sent to Baghdad with five thousand of their fighters, honored by al-Mansur, granted stipend and command. - واقعہ
مقتل مغلس وغلب موسى بن كعب السند
Mughallis al-Abdi reached Mansur ibn Jawhur al-Kalbi and was killed with his army; Abu Muslim then sent Musa ibn Ka'b al-Tamimi, who met Mansur across the Mihran, routed him and slew his brother Mundhir — Mansur fled broken to die of thirst in the sands. Musa governed Sind, repaired al-Mansura, enlarged its mosque, and raided on. - واقعہ
سيرة ابن سمرة إلى كابل
Mu'awiya's appointment of Ibn Amir over Basra sent Ibn Samura back to Sijistan — Abbad ibn al-Husayn al-Habati over his shurta, and with him the ashraf Umar ibn Ubaydallah ibn Ma'mar, Abdullah ibn Khazim, Qatari ibn al-Fuja'a and al-Muhallab ibn Abi Sufra — reconquering town after town whose folk had apostatized, by force or sulh, until Kabul. Months of siege and mangonels opened a great breach; Abbad spent the night spearing the polytheists so they could not close it — al-Hasan: 'I never thought one man could stand for a thousand until I saw Abbad ibn al-Husayn'. At dawn the foe sallied; Ibn Khazim hamstrung their elephant which fell blocking the gate so they could not shut it — Abu Mikhnaf says it was al-Muhallab — and the Muslims entered by force. Victory-dispatch went with Umar ibn Ubaydallah and al-Muhallab; then Ibn Samura crossed Wadi Nasl, took Khawash and Quzan by force, Wazan whose folk fled, Khushak by sulh, al-Akhj by fighting, Zabulistan broken with captives, and Kabul again. - واقعہ
نزاع المرغاب
The Marghab tract — eight thousand jarib — was Hilal ibn Ahwaz al-Mazini's grant from Yazid ibn Abd al-Malik; Bashir ibn Ubaydallah ibn Abi Bakra dug its canals by force, named it Marghab Marw and claimed 'this qati'a is mine'. Humayri ibn Hilal sued; Bashir had already complained to Khalid ibn Abdallah al-Qasri and won, so Khalid wrote Malik ibn al-Mundhir ibn al-Jarud on Basra's police: 'leave Bashir alone with the Marghab and its land' — while Amr ibn Yazid al-Usaydi sided with Humayri. - واقعہ
حيلة مرزوق على الأصبهبذ
When Tabaristan's people breached under al-Mansur and killed Muslims he sent Khazim ibn Khuzayma al-Tamimi and Rawh ibn Hatim al-Muhallabi — with them Marzuq Abu al-Khasib, Khazim's mawla, namesake of Kufa's Qasr al-Khasib. As the siege dragged he begged them to beat him and shave his head and beard; done, he escaped to the Ispahbadh claiming 'these two betrayed me — see what they did — I have fled to you; accept my desertion and I will show you the Arabs' weaknesses'. The Ispahbadh clothed him, rewarded him and showed trust; Marzuq wrote the generals all they needed, contrived the gate till it opened, the Muslims took the city and subdued the land. - واقعہ

Mu'awiya made Masmala ibn Hubayra ibn Shabal of Tha'laba ibn Shayban governor of Tabaristan — all its people war — reinforced with ten, some say twenty, thousand; the enemy tricked him, showing dread till he drove deep into the land, then seized the narrows and rolled the mountains' rocks onto their heads — the whole army perished and Masmala with it, and the people made him a proverb: 'till Masmala returns from Tabaristan'. - واقعہ

Nafi', Shibl and Abu Bakra swore explicitly; Ziyad, fourth, said 'I saw an ugly sight and heard a high breathing — I know not whether he entered her'. Umar: 'I see the face of a man on whose word I hope no Companion is stoned' — he had the three flogged; Shibl cried 'you flog truth's witnesses?', Abu Bakra swore anew and was warned of the hadd — 'then it is a claim, your man is stoned' — and swore never to speak to Ziyad, his half-brother by Sumayya. - واقعہ

Al-Hajjaj gave Muhammad ibn al-Qasim the Sind frontier — recalled from a Rayy posting — with six thousand Syrian troops and outfitting down to threads and needles, ordered to muster at Shiraz; he even steeped carded cotton in wine-vinegar, dried in the shade, against Sind's vinegar-scarcity — 'soak it, cook with it, dye with it'. Muhammad marched through Makran, took Qanirbur and Arma'il — Muhammad ibn Harun joining him and dying near it, buried at Qanbal. - واقعہ

Al-Walid dead, Sulayman put Salih ibn Abd al-Rahman over Iraq's kharaj and Yazid ibn Abi Kabsha al-Saksaki over Sind; Muhammad was carried bound with Mu'awiya ibn al-Muhallab, reciting 'they wasted me — and what a youth they wasted, for the day of hardship and filling the gap'. Sind wept and painted him at al-Kiraj. Salih jailed him at Wasit — 'would that I were buried in Wasit's soil, pledged to iron, bound and shackled... had I not taken rest, mares and stallions bred for war would have been ridden; the Saksakis' horse had not entered our land, no amir of Akk over me, nor I follower of the Muzuni slave' — and tortured him among the Banu Abi Aqil till he died, avenging his brother Adam the Khariji killed by al-Hajjaj. Hazza ibn Bayd al-Hanafi praised him: 'he led armies at seventeen — how near a mastery to his birth'. Yazid ibn Abi Kabsha died eighteen days after reaching Sind. - واقعہ

Across the Bayas, Multan's folk fought — Za'ida ibn Umayr al-Ta'i excelled — then shut themselves in. The Muslims ate their donkeys till a protected man showed the water-intake — the spring al-Balah fed from Basmad's river — and cut it, they yielded on terms: the fighters slain, six thousand temple sadins and offspring enslaved, and gold heaped in a ten-by-eight cubit house filled through a roof hole — whence 'Multan, Faraj Bayt al-Dhahab', the frontier of the House of Gold. Its budd drew offerings and vows; Sind's pilgrims shaved heads and beards there and claimed its idol was the prophet Ayyub. - واقعہ

Al-Mufaddal sent Uthman ibn Mas'ud with fifteen thousand, who camped on the island still called Jazirat Uthman, pressed Musa, and summoned Tarkhun. Seeing the forces arrive, Musa left the city charging his men: 'if I am killed, yield it to Mudrik ibn al-Muhallab, never to Ibn Mas'ud'. Turks and Sughd cut him off, his horse stumbled, he mounted behind a mawla crying 'death is bitter'; Uthman marked him — 'Musa's leap, by the Lord of the Ka'ba!' — drove him down, and they surrounded and slew him and his company save Irqiya ibn al-Harfana, spared to Khalid ibn Abi Barza. Wasil ibn Taysala al-Anbari struck the final blow; the city went to Mudrik — it was the end of 85h — and the man who struck dead Musa's leg was himself killed by Qutayba. - واقعہ

Musa ibn Abdallah ibn Khazim was at Tirmidh; he came to Samarqand where king Tarkhon honored him — until one of his men killed a Sughdian and he was expelled — then to Kish's lord, then back to Tirmidh the fortress. Its dahqan lodged and fed him; when Musa lay down to stay, the dahqan said 'leave', and he answered 'I know no home like this' — and fought its people. - واقعہ
حروب موسى من الترمذ
Tirmidh's dahqan and folk went to the Turks for help — refused: 'curse you, a man in a hundred comes, expels you, takes your city'. His father's old companions joined Musa; when the Turks finally aided, surrounding him, he night-attacked and took their camp — sixteen Muslims wounded. Thabit and Hurayth ibn Qutba, backed by Tarkhun's levies, became his army's real commanders — 'yours is the name, theirs the command'. Hayatila and Turks sallied and were beaten — al-Hajjaj: 'praise God who gave the hypocrites victory over the polytheists' — and Musa built two great mounds of his foes' heads. Hurayth fell to a stray arrow; the men pressed Musa against Thabit, who fled, won Tarkhun's aid, took the rabad, and besieged him in eighty thousand as Kish, Nasaf and Bukhara reinforced Musa. Yazid ibn Huzayl, sent against Ziyad al-Qasir, took a head-blow and died in seven days — Yazid himself escaped across the Saghaniyan river — and Musa's night-raid on Thabit's camp scattered the Ajam home. Khurasan's people said: never his like — two years unbeaten with his father, Tirmidh taken with a handful, its king expelled, Turks and Ajam routed. - واقعہ
غزو مسلم بن سعيد فرغانة والهزيمة
Umar ibn Hubayra gave Khurasan to Muslim ibn Sa'id, who took al-Afshin's sulh on six thousand heads plus his fortress.

Mus'ab sent Mukram ibn Mutarrif on the blood-feud; he camped where Askar Mukram stands and missed him — Ibn Zubyan reached Abd al-Malik, fought at his side against Mus'ab, killed him and took his head; al-Ba'ith sang 'we spared you — the best affair is sufficiency — we gave Ibn Saydan a bitter cup'. - واقعہ

Balkh sued for peace and return to obedience; Qays granted it — and Ibn Amir, when he presented himself, struck him a hundred lashes and imprisoned him.

First to write for the Prophet at Medina was Ubayy ibn Ka'b, and when absent Zayd ibn Thabit — both wrote revelation and correspondence before him; first Qurashi scribe was Abdallah ibn Sa'd ibn Abi Sarh, who then apostatized to Mecca having altered the dictation, and in his case al-An'am's verse came down on the one who claims to bring the like of the revelation. - واقعہ

Qutayba left his brother Salih beyond the river, who took Kasan and Urusht of Farghana — Nasr ibn Sayyar in his army — and Sakhr and Akhsikath, Farghana's old city; Kasan and Urusht, breached later, were last reopened by Nuh ibn Asad under al-Mansur.

Ghurak truced at two hundred and two thousand dirhams yearly with leave to pray in the city — entered, ate the food Ghurak prepared, built a mosque, and left a Muslim colony including the exegete al-Dahhak ibn Muzahim — or, some say, seven hundred thousand and three days' hospitality. The pact covered the idol- and fire-houses: the idols were taken out, stripped, and burned — the Ajam swore whoever touched them perished — and when Qutayba burned them with his own hand many embraced Islam. Abu Ubayda counts the conquest by force, Sa'id's unbroken sulh deemed too small; and he opened Baykand, Kish, Nasaf, al-Shash, Bum of Farghana, Sughd and Ushrusana. - واقعہ
قدوم قتيبة سجستان
Qutayba ibn Muslim, holding Khurasan and Sijistan under al-Walid, gave Sijistan to his brother Amr; when Amr pressed Rutbil for arrears, Rutbil answered he owed only the 'urud agreed with al-Hajjaj. Amr wrote to Qutayba, who came in person; Rutbil sent: 'we have not left obedience — we only agreed on 'urud, so do not wrong us'. Qutayba told the army 'accept his 'urud — it is an accursed frontier', and they did. Before returning he sowed a crop at Zaranj so the enemy would despair of his leaving and submit; when locusts ate it he had it burned, leaving Ibn Abdallah ibn Umayr al-Laythi — Ibn Amir's maternal half-brother — over Sijistan. - واقعہ
استيحاش قتيبة من سليمان بن عبد الملك
Qutayba dreaded Sulayman, having backed Abd al-Aziz ibn al-Walid for the succession. When al-Walid died Sulayman took the pulpit and railed at Habanqa al-'A'ishi — Yazid ibn Tazwan, who prized fat camels saying 'I do not mend what God has corrupted' — then at Tamim ('not Banu Tamim but Banu Dhamim'), Bakr ibn Wa'il, and the Azd, 'ya ahl al-safila — I will not say ahl al-'aliya — may He set you where He set you'. His letter granting Qutayba the governorship came with orders to free prisoners, pay stipends and permit departures — broadcast by the messenger — and Qutayba called it his design, telling the people 'Sulayman has made you great as mosquitoes' marrow, and you will yet be asked bay'a to Anwar, a boy whose slaughter is unlawful'. Stung by his curses they heard his apology — 'I was angry, knew not what I said' — and answered: if he lets us go home, good; if not, he blames only himself. - واقعہ
نقل الربيع بن زياد خمسين ألفاً إلى خراسان
In 51h Ziyad gave Khurasan to al-Rabi' ibn Ziyad al-Harithi, who moved near fifty thousand folk of the two misrs with their families — among them Burayda ibn al-Husayb al-Aslami, who died at Marw under Yazid ibn Mu'awiya, and Abu Barza al-Aslami, who died there too — settling them short of the river; he was the first to order the troops' garrison-settling. News of Hujr ibn Adi's killing grieved him; he prayed for death, fell that day, and died in 53h. His son Abdallah succeeded, fought Amul and Zamm into sulh, and died at Marw two months on. - واقعہ
نقض رامهرمز وفتحها
Abu Musa truced Ramhurmuz; they broke it, so Abu Maryam al-Hanafi re-truced them for eight hundred — or nine hundred — thousand dirhams; they betrayed again and it was taken by force in Abu Musa's last days. - واقعہ
فتح راور وبرهمباذ
Muhammad stormed Rawar, where a wife of Dahir, fearing capture, burned herself, her maids and her wealth; then Brahmanabadh al-Atiqa — two farsakhs from the later al-Mansura, then mere thicket — where Dahir's remnant fought and fell, eight thousand dead or twenty-six thousand by the larger count, and today ruins. Sawandra's folk won aman on hosting and guiding the Muslims — Muslims today — and Basmad truced the same. Ibn al-Kalbi names Dahir's killer al-Qasim ibn Tha'laba al-Ta'i. - واقعہ
حرب رتبيل والربيع بن زياد
The Kabul Shah mustered and expelled every Muslim in Kabul; Rutbil came and took Zabulistan and Rukhkhaj as far as Bust. Al-Rabi' ibn Ziyad rode out with the people, fought Rutbil at Bust and routed him, pursued him to Rukhkhaj and fought him there, then went on to conquer the Dawar country. - واقعہ
امتناع رتبيل عن أتاوة العمال
To Yazid ibn Abd al-Malik's men Rutbil paid nothing. Asked what had become of the folk who used to come 'hollow-bellied, faces blackened by prayer, sandals of palm-fibre' — 'they are gone' — 'those were your betters in covenant and might, though you have fairer faces'. And why he paid al-Hajjaj but not them: 'al-Hajjaj never looked at what he spent once he won his purpose, though not a dirham returned; you never spend a dirham unless you hope ten come back for it'. Neither Umayyad nor Zubayrid governors of Sijistan took that atawa from him. - واقعہ
شكوى أهل الكوفة سعداً وتعاقب الولاة
In al-Baladhuri via Jabir ibn Samura: the Kufans maligned Sa'd to Umar claiming he prayed poorly; Sa'd answered he led them the Messenger's prayer unabridged — lingering in the first two, light in the last — and Umar's mosque-by-mosque inquiry praised him everywhere until a man of Banu Abs called Abu Sa'da testified he neither divided equally nor judged justly; Sa'd's counter-prayer for a liar befell him, Abd al-Malik ibn Umayr later seeing him in the alleys saying 'an old man tried — Sa'd's prayer struck me'. Amr ibn Ma'dikarib testified for Sa'd with 'a gnat's gathering and a goodly mother's tenderness', gave Umar his famous appraisals of war and weapons — the spear 'your brother though he may betray', arrows 'death's messengers', mail 'a burden for horseman and weariness for footman yet a strong fortress', and for the sword 'there your mother bewailed you' met by Umar's 'nay, your mother bewailed you' — whereupon 'the fever drove me to you'. Umar deposed Sa'd for Ammar ibn Yasir, whom they then called weak and unknowledgeable — deposed after a year and nine months — and Umar cried 'who will excuse me from the Kufans? Appoint the strong they make him a sinner, the weak they slight him', finally giving it to al-Mughira ibn Shu'ba on his pledge not to return to his former accusation, which he held till Umar's death; Uthman then appointed Sa'd, replaced him with al-Walid ibn Uqba — Sa'd greeting him 'either you measured after me or I grew senile after you' — then with Sa'id ibn al-As. - واقعہ
سعيد بن عثمان وموقف بخارا
Mu'awiya gave Khurasan to Sa'id ibn Uthman ibn Affan — the first to cross the river with his whole army, and with him Rufay' Abu al-Aliya al-Riyahi ('Rufay' Abu al-Aliya: elevation and height'). The Khatun, hearing of his crossing, sued for peace; yet the Sughd, Turks, Kish and Nasaf — that is Nakhshab — came against him at a hundred and twenty thousand, meeting at Bukhara as the Khatun regretted her tribute and broke covenant. A slave of Sa'id's detached part of the host, the rest broke, and the Khatun gave hostages and renewed the peace — and Sa'id entered Bukhara's city. - واقعہ
ولاية سعيد حذيفة خراسان وهزيمة سورة
Under Yazid ibn Abd al-Malik, Maslama gave Khurasan to his son-in-law Sa'id ibn Abd al-Aziz — nicknamed 'Hudhayfa' when a dahqan saw him saffron-dyed with combed hair and called him effeminate. His man Sawra ibn al-Hurr retook Ishtikhan from the Turks and routed them, then lost the second battle with heavy loss; the obscene lampoon on Sa'id survives. Khurasan's notables complained to Maslama and he was deposed — al-Jarrah meanwhile had kept weighed silver and gold pieces under his carpet, tossing each visitor his due. - واقعہ
قتل رهن السغد سعيد بن عثمان
Sa'id carried his Sughd hostages to Medina, gave their clothes and belts to his mawali, dressed them in wool, and set them to water-carrying, wells and labour — they entered his majlis, butchered him, then killed themselves. Malik ibn al-Rayb and Khalid ibn Uqba ibn Abi Mu'ayt each have verses on him. - واقعہ
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 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. - واقعہ
محنة سلم بن زياد مع ابن الزبير
At Yazid's death the people turned on Salm — 'ill did Ibn Sumayya think to command us in community and strife', as had been said to his brother Ubaydallah at Basra — and he left Khurasan to Ibn al-Zubayr, who fined him four million dirhams and imprisoned him. Salm would say 'would I had gone to Syria and stayed in my brother Ubaydallah's service — washing his foot — rather than come to Ibn al-Zubayr'. At Mecca until al-Hajjaj's siege, he tunneled from prison to al-Hajjaj, then Abd al-Malik — 'by God, had you stayed at Mecca she would have no governor but you' — who gave him Khurasan; reaching Basra, he died there. - واقعہ
صلح سرخس
Ibn Khazim fought Sarakhs; its marzban Zadhuya sought peace on aman for a hundred men and the surrender of its women — his own daughter fell to Ibn Khazim's lot, who took her and named her Maysha' — and he ruled Sarakhs's land. Another telling: he truced on aman for a hundred souls, named the hundred, omitted himself — and was killed, and the town entered by force. From Sarakhs Ibn Khazim sent his mawla Yazid ibn Salim to take Kif and Yabina. - واقعہ
قتل السيايجة حراس بيت المال
A body of Sayabija — forty or four hundred — stood watch over Basra's treasury; when Talha and al-Zubayr came to Basra, held for Ali by Uthman ibn Hunayf, they refused to surrender the treasury till Ali's arrival — so they were fallen upon at dawn and killed, Abdallah ibn al-Zubayr leading that party; over the Sayabija then was Abu Salama al-Zutti, a righteous man. - واقعہ
سيل العرم
The breach of Saba's dam — a farsakh-square work of Luqman al-Akbar whose stone-and-iron channel fed thirty engineered outlets — decayed by the centuries until the water seized it and emptied the gardens; its name the 'Arim, the musanah burst by a rat for the greater wonder. - واقعہ
ضياع خاتم الخلافة في بئر أريس
The Prophet's silver seal, engraved 'Muhammad, Messenger of God', passed to Abu Bakr's sealing, then Umar's, then Uthman's — and slipped from his hand into the well mid-caliphate; it was emptied and the seal not recovered, so he had a seal made engraved 'Muhammad, Messenger of God' in three lines. Variants: all silver, fass and ring, or a silver ring with an Abyssinian stone; and his word, 'I have made a seal — let no one engrave upon its engraving'. - واقعہ
أمان العبد بشهريج
Shahrij held a full month's siege; one day a Muslim slave lagged behind — taken for a defector — and wrote the garrison an aman on an arrow he shot in. Next day they came out: 'here is your aman'; the Muslims wrote Umar, who answered 'the Muslims' slave is of the Muslims — his dhimma is as theirs: honor it', and they did. In another telling the fort was at Siraf, the garrison saying 'we know not freeman from slave', and Umar's answer the same. - واقعہ
فتح السوس
Abu Musa besieged al-Sus till its food failed; its marzban bought aman for eighty named men — excluding himself — to open the gate; Abu Musa beheaded him, spared the eighty, killed the other fighters and took the wealth and children. In the citadel stood a curtained house: the body of the prophet Daniel, whom a drought had moved them to ask Babylon's people to bury among them for rain — Bukhtanasar had carried him captive to Babylon and he died there. Abu Musa wrote Umar, who answered 'shroud and bury him' — he dammed the river, buried him and released the water. Khalid ibn Zayd, who lost an eye there, tells the dahqan's hundred-man aman and the spared 'enemy of God' who cried 'wait, I give great wealth' — refused and beheaded. - واقعہ

Abu Musa besieged Manadhir against fierce fighting; al-Muhajir ibn Ziyad, al-Rabi' ibn Ziyad's brother, meant to sell his life fasting — Abu Musa had sworn every faster break his fast or not fight, so he drank 'not from thirst' and fell martyred, his head raised on the citadel between two merlons — the poem 'راح المهاجر في حل بإجمال' mourns him. Al-Rabi' ibn Ziyad, left in charge, took Manadhir by force — killing the fighters, capturing the children — so both Manadhirs passed to the Muslims under Asim ibn Qays al-Sulami; in another telling Umar ruled it 'a Sawad village — return what you took'. - واقعہ
حصار سمرقند في أيام سعيد بن عثمان
Sa'id ibn Uthman marched on Samarqand with the Khatun's Bukhara levies, camped at its gate, and swore not to stir until it opened and he had thrown down its qahandaz. Three days' fighting — fiercest on the third — cost him an eye and cost al-Muhallab ibn Abi Sufra his (or the Muhallab's eye went at Talaqan); the foe slackened, wounds telling, when a man guided Sa'id to a castle holding their kings' sons and nobles — besieged, the city feared its storm and sued: seven hundred thousand dirhams, hostages of their nobles' sons — fifteen, or forty, or eighty — and his right to enter the city and leave by the other gate. He loosed a stone at the qahandaz and it lodged in its loophole; then he withdrew, and at Tirmidh the Khatun's suit won another sulh. - واقعہ

The fighting ran to Tustar's gate where al-Bara' ibn Malik fought till martyred, and Hurmuzan went in. - واقعہ
حملة الربيع بن زياد إلى سجستان
Ibn Amir, bound for Khurasan in 30h, camped at Shaq al-Shirjan and sent al-Rabi' ibn Ziyad into Sijistan: al-Fahraj, then the seventy-five-farsakh mafaza, then Rustaq Zaliq raided on Mihrjan day — its dahqan ransomed himself by planting his spear and piling gold and silver over it — then Karkuya and Haysun surrendered unresisted. Guided to Zaranj across Wadi Nuq, he fought Zusht hard — Muslim dead — till they were forced inside the walls; Nashrudh fell with the father of Abu Salih, later al-Hajjaj's secretary — a Marra woman, Abla, bought him — and Shirwadh with Ibrahim ibn Bassam's grandfather. At Zaranj the marzban Aparwiz sought aman: al-Rabi' sat him on a corpse, leaned on another, seated his companions on corpses — dark, long-limbed, loud-voiced — and the awed marzban truced for a thousand slave-youths each bearing a gold cup. His governorship ran two and a half years, forty thousand captives, and al-Hasan al-Basri was his secretary. - واقعہ
فتنة الحبطات بسجستان
Ibn Samura left Umair ibn al-Ahmar al-Yashkuri over Zaranj when Uthman's affair unravelled — its people expelled him and shut the gates. After the Camel, Hasaka ibn Utab al-Habati and Imran ibn al-Fasil al-Burjumi rode out with Arab desperadoes: plundered Zaliq whose folk had broken, captured al-Bakhtari's grandfather al-Asamm ibn Mujahid, and entered Zaranj whose marzban truced. Ali's envoy Abd al-Rahman ibn Jaza' al-Ta'i was killed by Hasaka — 'I will kill four thousand of the Habata', and it was said 'the Habata are not even five hundred'; Abu Mikhnaf adds that Awn ibn Jamda al-Makhzumi, sent likewise, was killed by the bandit Buhadali al-Ta'i. Ali then had Ibn Abbas send Rubay'i ibn al-Kas al-Anbari with four thousand — with al-Husayn ibn Abi al-Hurr and Na'il ibn Dhi al-Hurra on the vanguard — who killed Hasaka and secured the country, their rajaz vow: 'we will not befriend the party of Ibn Affan — we found it in the Book of the Furqan'. - واقعہ

Al-Hajjaj died while Muhammad fought on; back at al-Rur he gave stipends, took al-Baylaman's unresisted submission and Sursant's peace — today's Basran resort — then al-Kiraj, where Dahir's son Duhar sallied, fled or fell, and the city came down on terms amid killing and captives: 'we killed Dahir and Duhar, and horse fells knight after knight'. - واقعہ

An army under Aws ibn Tha'laba ibn Raqqi — or Khulayd ibn Abdallah al-Hanafi — went to Herat; its great came out to Ibn Amir and truced for Herat, Badghis and Bushanj, save Taghun and Baghun taken by force. Ibn Amir's writ, penned by Rabi' ibn Nahshal and sealed by himself, charged the great with piety, sincere counsel to the Muslims and righting his lands, compounded Herat's plain and mountain on the agreed jizya divided justly — 'whoever withholds what is on him has no covenant nor dhimma'. Another telling: Ibn Amir marched on Herat in strength, fought, and the marzban truced for a million. - واقعہ

Kanazbak, marzban of Tus, compounded Tus at six hundred thousand; Marw's marzban sent al-Shahijan suing for peace, and Hatim ibn al-Nu'man al-Bahili truced Marw at a million two hundred thousand — others say a million dirhams and two hundred thousand jarib of wheat and barley, or a million one hundred thousand uqiyya — on terms that they widen the Muslims' housing while the tax-division rested on them, the Muslims only collecting. All Marw was sulh save the village called al-Sanj, taken by force.

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.

Abu Bakr had made shares equal; Umar refused — 'I will not make who fought the Prophet like who fought with him': five thousand a year for every Badr man, allies and mawali equal; four thousand for Badr-like Islam, Abyssinia-migrants and Uhud-men; two thousand for Badris' sons, save Hasan and Husayn joined to their father's five thousand for kinship; al-Abbas five or seven thousand; above all, the Prophet's wives twelve thousand, Juwayriya and Safiyya joined. Umar ibn Abi Salama got four thousand — 'I favor his nearness: bring me a mother like Umm Salama' — and Usama ibn Zayd four thousand to Abdallah ibn Umar's three: 'he was dearer to the Prophet than you, his father dearer than yours'. The rest by rank, Qur'an and jihad; Yemen and Qays folk from two thousand to none below three hundred — 'were the wealth great I'd give each man four thousand: a thousand for travel, a thousand for arms, a thousand left home, a thousand for horse and shoe' — stipends for muhajirat women, a hundred for the exposed infant rising at weaning, a hundred and monthly keep for every foundling, suckling and upkeep on the bayt al-mal. - واقعہ

Yazid ibn Abi Habib: Umar set Amr ibn al-As at two hundred as amir, Umayr ibn Wahb al-Jumahi at two hundred for his patience in want, Busr ibn Abi Artat at two hundred as a man of conquest — 'many a conquest God wrought by his hand' — and wrote Amr to set the Tree-pledgers at two hundred, take that himself as amir, and put Kharija ibn Hudhafa in sharaf al-ata' for his courage. A governor who paid Arabs and left mawali got his letter: 'it suffices a man for evil to scorn his Muslim brother'; Ammar ibn Yasir's stipend was six thousand, Salman's four, Hurmuzan's two. When the diwan was laid down Abu Sufyan ibn Harb said 'a diwan like Banu al-Asfar's — pay them and they will lean on it and leave trade'; Umar: 'it must be — the Muslims have grown'. Stipends went to the dahqans too — Nahr al-Malik's, Ibn al-Nukhayrajan, Khalid and Jamil sons of Busubuhri, Sistam ibn Tarisi of Babil and Khutarniya, al-Rufayl of al-Al, and Ju'ayfina al-Abadi at a thousand each — and his letter to the jund-commanders attached every freed Hamra' convert to his mawali 'theirs what is theirs, on them what is on them', or formed them into a tribe equal in stipend. Abu Ubayda refused the badia till the hadara were provided, Umar II wrote the same to Yazid ibn Husayn, and Umar gave Mecca's people no stipend and sent them on no expedition. - واقعہ

Abu Hurayra brought five hundred thousand from Bahrayn — 'much money has come: shall we count it or weigh it?' — and a man said 'I have seen these Ajam keep a diwan they pay the people by'; so Umar wrote the diwan: first Muhajirun five thousand, Ansar four thousand, the Prophet's wives twelve thousand. 'It is their right — had it been Khattab-money I'd not have given it, but I know there is surplus: let each stipend buy sheep for his sawad, then rams, till his children hold a substance' — and 'I counsel whom God charges: the Prophet said who dies cheating his flock will not smell paradise'.

When Umar appointed an official he registered his wealth, and halved the fortunes of wronging governors — a half to the treasury, a half to them. Long he ate nothing of the fisc till want touched him; he asked the Companions and Ali said 'lunch and supper' — he took that. His letter: no army or raiding amir shall flog a hadd far from the route, lest Satan's zeal carry him to the unbelievers. 'This matter stands only on a firmness without despotism and a gentleness without weakness'. A woman came: 'my husband prays all night and fasts all day' — 'well praised' — Ka'b ibn Suwar: 'she complains — she says he gives her no share' — 'then judge between them: God allowed him four women — she has a day of every four days and a night of every four nights'. And sixteen dinars spent on his hajj — 'Abdallah, we have been extravagant with this money'. - واقعہ

Umar had a jarib of food kneaded and baked and oiled — thirty men ate lunch from it, and the same at supper — 'two jaribs a month suffice a man', and so each man, woman and mamluk drew two jaribs monthly; a man would curse his fellow 'may God lift your two jaribs' — death cut them — 'and that is on tongues to this day'. Abu al-Darda' counted 'rightly-guided sunnas Umar granted the umma — among them the two mudds and the two qists'; on the minbar, mudd and qist in hand: 'we run your stipends and your rizq every month — for every Muslim soul each month a mudd, a qist of oil, a qist of vinegar' — 'and the slave?' — 'yes, and the slave'. For dependents he set the fighters' households and their descendants at tens; Uthman and his governors kept it and made it heritable to non-stipended heirs till Umar II, who heard Sulayman ibn Habib's account, disliked the inheritance — 'cut it and generalize the stipend' — 'I fear they will imitate your cutting and not your generalizing' — 'truly said', and he left them. The newborn drew ten; Mu'awiya deferred it to the weanling; Abd al-Malik cut it save whom he willed — and 'do not hasten weaning your children: we stipend every newborn in Islam'. - واقعہ
ولاية أمية بن عبد الله خراسان وقتل بكير
Khurasan split between Bukayr's party and Bujayr's until its notables wrote Abd al-Malik that only a Qurashi could mend it — Umayya ibn Abdallah ibn Khalid was sent, gave Bukayr Tukharistan then the trans-river campaigns, and planned Bukhara then Musa at Tirmidh. Bukayr raced to Marw, seized Umayya's son, called the people to depose him; forewarned, Umayya truced Bukhara cheaply, took ships Bukayr had burned, returned and fought him, then truced him any district he chose — but hearing he still plotted, had him seized at his house and imprisoned, where Bujayr ibn Waraqa leapt on him and killed him. Umayya campaigned al-Khattl, broken since Sa'id ibn Uthman's sulh, and took it. - واقعہ
خنق عقبة بن أبي معيط للنبي في الحجر
Uqba ibn Abi Mu'it put his garment around the Prophet's neck while he prayed by the Kaaba and choked him severely; Abu Bakr seized his shoulders, pushed him away and said: Will you kill a man for saying 'My Lord is God'? - واقعہ
إسلام ملك العسيفان
At al-Usayfan between Kashmir, Multan and Kabul, a king begged his idol's sadins to pray for his sick son — they claimed its answer, the boy died, and he demolished the shrine, broke the idol, slew the sadins — then summoned Muslim merchants who taught him tawhid, and he converted under al-Mu'tasim. - واقعہ
تعاقب العشر والخراج على أراضي الفرات
Euphrates lands whose holders surrendered them when the Muslims entered, or which passed to Muslim hands as gifts, were made ushr-lands; they had been kharaj — al-Hajjaj returned them to kharaj, Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz to sadaqa, Umar ibn Hubayra back to kharaj, Hisham part to sadaqa, and al-Mahdi at last made them all sadaqa-lands. - واقعہ
خبيص عتبة بن فرقد
Umar sent his Azerbaijan governor Utba ibn Farqad a hamper of khabis-sweets among the felt-rolls; Utba asked if it was money, then had it sent back. Utba later made two baskets of khabis wrapped in hides and felt, sent by his mawla Suhaym — Umar tasted, 'fine indeed; did the Emigrants eat their fill of it? It is yours alone' — and wrote back: 'it is not your toil nor your mother's nor your father's; eat nothing but what fills the Muslims in their camps'. - واقعہ
غارة عثمان بن أبي العاص على تانه والهند
In 15h Umar gave Uthman ibn Abi al-As al-Thaqafi Bahrayn and Uman; he sent brother al-Hakam to Bahrayn and from Uman detached troops to Tana — Umar's answer was the famous 'ya akha Thaqif, you set worms upon wood; had they been struck I'd have taken their like from your people'. Al-Hakam sent to Barus, and brother al-Mughira to the Daybul creek, where he met the enemy and prevailed. - واقعہ
بيعة وكيع بن حسان على قتيبة
Qutayba preached his ihsan, their scant loyalty, and warned of the Ajam he had raised over them — they resolved on war and gave no answer. Al-Hudayn ibn al-Mundhir refused their leadership and pointed them to Waki' ibn Hassan ibn Qays ibn Abi Sud of Tamim — 'none else can bear it: a rough Arab whose tribe obeys him, a Tamimi; and Qutayba slew the Banu al-Ahtham, who seek their blood'. They sought him out, he gave his hand, and they swore him bay'a — Hayyan, Maslama's mawla, having gone between them. - واقعہ
حكم وكيع بن حسان خراسان تسعة أشهر
Waki' held Khurasan sole; Sulayman meant to confirm him but was told fitna raises him and the jama'a lowers him — too rough, too bedouin, a man who called for a basin and urinated in public. Nine months till Yazid ibn al-Muhallab came appointed; Mukhallad his son called Waki' to account — 'yield God's wealth' — 'was I God's treasurer?' — and jailed him. Mukhallad took al-Buttam, left when they breached, then wheeled back and entered it with Jahm ibn Zahr, who took wealth and golden idols — Buttam's folk trace their mawla-status to him. - واقعہ
عذاب يوم الظلة
In al-Mas'udi the Day of the Shadow fell in king Kalamn's reign at Madyan — a door of fire opened from the sky while Shu'ayb sheltered at the thicket of al-Ayka, and the white pleasant cloud the people drove the believers into became their fire; Kalamn's daughter Haritha lamented him from the Hijaz. - واقعہ
غزو يزيد بن المهلب جرجان
Sulayman gave Yazid ibn al-Muhallab Iraq; bound for Khurasan he met Sul al-Turki on the road, took the caliph's leave to raid him — Jilan and Sariya — then besieged him in Dihistan, cut his supplies, and accepted his treaty: safe self, property and household for the city — and kept faith, while killing fourteen thousand Turks, though Abu Ubayda reports Sul slain. Jurjan paid him Sa'id's tribute, breached, and Jahm ibn Zahr retook it — one account has a hundred and twenty thousand in his host against the fired-brick wall the Turks had seized, one end in the sea; he found Sul at al-Buhayra, besieged him six months and treated him out with three hundred of his household. When Jurjan breached again its marzban fortified at Wajah among thickets — seven months, mangonels, then an informer's path and hide-ladders; Jahm swore 'if I am spared life, let me not be spared death', the gate-keepers fell, and the enemy knew only the takbir behind them — the captives driven to Wadi Jurjan were slaughtered till the blood ran, and Yazid built Madinat Jurjan. - واقعہ
مغازي يزيد بن المهلب وخلافة المفضل
The Muhallab's son Yazid succeeded, campaigning widely — al-Buttam opened by his own son Mukhallad. Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Abbas ibn Rabi'a of Abd al-Muttalib's house, fleeing with Ibn al-Ash'ath's remnant, reached Herat, killed al-Ruqad al-Mutakki and levied kharaj; Yazid beat him, forbade pursuit, and the Hashimi fled to Sind. On Yazid's Khwarizm raid the troops wore the captives' clothes and perished of cold. Then al-Hajjaj gave Khurasan to al-Mufaddal ibn al-Muhallab, who retook breached Badghis, Shuman and others, dividing the spoils. - واقعہ
عطاء زينب بنت جحش ودعاؤها
When the stipends issued Umar sent Zaynab bint Jahsh hers; 'God forgive Umar — my sisters were worthier of sharing this than I' — 'it is all yours' — she veiled it with cloth, had Barza bint Rafi' take fistfuls to her kinsfolk and orphans till five hundred and eighty remained beneath, and prayed: 'God, let no stipend of Umar's reach me past this year' — and she died. Ibn Shihab's register: twelve thousand to the consummated wives, six each to Juwayriya and Safiyya as fay'-born, five thousand to Muhajir Badris, four to Ansari Badris, sarih and halif and mawla equal; Mus'ab ibn Sa'd's: six thousand Badris, ten thousand the mothers, Aisha plus two thousand for the Prophet's love; and of their five Ajam, Tamim al-Dari and Bilal. 'If I live to next year I will set the humblest Muhajirun at two thousand'. - واقعہ
تقسيم زياد أعمال خراسان سنة ٤٥
Governor of Basra in 45h, Ziyad divided Khurasan's commands: Umair ibn al-Ahmar over Marw — the first to settle the Arabs there — Khulayd ibn Abdallah al-Hanafi over Abarshahr, Qays ibn al-Haytham over Marw al-Rudh, Talaqan and Faryab, Nafi' ibn Khalid al-Tahi of the Azd over Herat, Badghis and Bushanj, and Qadis of the Anwaran. - واقعہ
قطع الزط ومحاربة عجيف لهم
Al-Hajjaj settled a mass of Sind's Zutt — families, children and buffaloes — in Kaskar's lowlands; they overran the batiha and bred, joined by runaway slaves and the Bahila and Khawla mawlas of Muhammad ibn Sulayman ibn Ali, who egged them to highway robbery and open defiance. In al-Ma'mun's days travellers avoided them and Baghdad lost all Basra shipping; al-Mu'tasim devoted himself to them, charging the Khurasani Ujayf ibn Anbasa with open funds — he staged lean tailed horses between the bata'ih and Baghdad so word reached him within hours — and Ujayf dammed the water against them with great works till not one escaped, barged them to Baghdad and scattered them: some at Khaniqin, the rest to Ayn Zarba and the frontier. - واقعہ
