Overview
Waki' ibn Abi Sud al-Tamimi, mentioned by al-Baladhuri in Futuh al-Buldan 1.
In Basra
al-Baladhuri reports that he wrote to Adi ibn Artat when he consulted the people of Basra about digging a river. He told him that if he did not dig them a river, Basra would not be a home for them 1.
In Khurasan
He was over the Banu Tamim in Khurasan, and Qutayba removed him from them. The book reports that when Qutayba killed the Banu al-Ahtham, he said that he would not pray to a lord who was not angry on their behalf, and that the prayer was missed by him 1.
These are al-Baladhuri's reports, and they need an additional source to establish their meaning and context.
