Tamim ibn Zayd and the Withdrawal from Hind

Al-Baladhuri relates that Tamim ibn Zayd al-Atabi governed Sind after al-Junayd, grew weak and feeble, and died near Daybul by a water called the water of the buffaloes. ¹

Tamim was one of the generous Arabs. He found in the treasury of Sind eighteen million Tatariyya dirhams, and hastened to spend them. ¹

Al-Baladhuri says that in Tamim's days the Muslims left the lands of India and abandoned their posts, and did not return to them until al-Baladhuri's time. ¹

Al-Baladhuri relates the story of a young man of the Banu Yarbu', called Khunays or Habish, who was in Tamim's army in India. He asked his mother to ask al-Farazdaq to write to Tamim for his return, and al-Farazdaq wrote verses to him. ¹
