al-Mundhir ibn Hassan al-Dabbi

Overview

Al-Mundhir ibn Hassan ibn Sarar al-Dabbi. Al-Baladhuri relates that he disputed sharply with Jarir ibn Abd Allah over the killing of Mihran on the day of al-Buwayb. Al-Mundhir took the region of Mihran, and Jarir took the rest of his spoils. ¹

Note: the museum has another entry under a close name, al-Mundhir ibn Hassan ibn Dirar, in which al-Baladhuri mentions Mihran and the day of al-Nukhayla. The two may be one person, and this needs review.

al-Muthanna ibn Haritha

His name appears in the index of the third volume, alongside Abu Ubayd ibn Mas'ud, for the year 13: 'Account of al-Muthanna ibn Haritha and Abu Ubayd ibn Mas'ud'. According to al-Baladhuri, al-Muthanna ibn Haritha ibn Salama ibn Dimdim al-Shaybani used to raid al-Sawad with men of his people. Abu Bakr wrote him a written commission over those of them who had embraced Islam, to fight the Persians; he alighted at Khafan and summoned his people, and they became Muslims. Abu Bakr then wrote ordering him to hear and obey Khalid ibn al-Walid; he met him at al-Nabaj, and met Jaban at Nahr al-Dam. He was the first conqueror of al-Sawad.
