Overview
Bashir ibn Ubayd Allah ibn Abi Bakra, one of the men of the Umayyad covenant. The sources say that he dug the Marghab in Basra and dug the channels and cross-canals in Taghlib, and called it "the Marghab of Merv" and claimed it as his estate. 1
Humayri ibn Hilal disputed with him, and he was brought before Khalid ibn Abd Allah al-Qasri, who complained to him and Khalid accepted his word. 1
