Overview
The Habasha of al-Bayma remained after the conquest of Egypt, fighting for seven years, and no one could overcome them. Al-Baladhuri mentions that they did not burst the waters in the thickets. 1
They are linked in the museum's data to the account of Amr's dismissal from Egypt.
This needs a second source: the summary is short and does not name their leaders or say how their fighting ended.
