خلاصہ

نوبہ مصر کے جنوب میں واقع ایک خطہ ہے۔ بلاذری ذکر کرتے ہیں کہ مصر کی فتح کے بعد مسلمانوں کے گھوڑے یہاں پہنچے، تو انہیں سخت لڑائی اور تیروں کی بارش کا سامنا ہوا جس سے آنکھوں کو نقصان پہنچا، اس لیے ان لوگوں کا نام "آنکھوں کو زخمی کرنے والے" رکھا گیا۔ پھر عبداللہ بن سعد بن ابی سرح نے ان سے جزیے کے بغیر صلح کی مدت طے کی۔ ¹

صلح النوبة

In al-Baladhuri via al-Walid ibn Kathir via Yazid ibn Abi Habib via Abu al-Khayr: when the Muslims opened Egypt Amr ibn al-As sent the cavalry to the villages around it to trample them, sending Uqba ibn Nafi' al-Fihri — Nafi' being al-As's maternal brother; their horses entered Nubia like the Romans' summer raids, the Muslims met fierce fighting and were showered with arrows till most were wounded, returning with many wounds and gouged eyes — called 'eye-bleeders' — until Abdallah ibn Sa'd ibn Abi Sarh governed Egypt; they asked him for peace and truce which he granted not on jizya but on a truce of three hundred heads yearly, the Muslims gifting them equal food. A Himyari shaykh who twice witnessed Nubia under Umar: no people sharper in war — one would ask a Muslim 'where would you like me to place my arrow?' and not miss; they lined up one day and shot till eyes were gone — a hundred and fifty gouged eyes counted — so they said nothing better than peace with them, their spoil little and their vexation severe; Umar never made peace with them and kept harassing them until he died, and Abdallah ibn Sa'd made peace with them. At Nubia Mu'awiya ibn Khudayj al-Kindi's eye was lost — he was one-eyed.
