Talk:Atiyah ibn Sa'd

Atiyah ibn Sa'd and Muhammad ibn Qasim
Atiyah ibn Sa'd supported the revolt of Al-Ash'ath and his campaign against al-Hajjāj, the Umayyad viceroy of Iraq under Caliph Al-Walid I. The revolt was suppressed and Al-Ash’ath was killed in 85 AH. after which Atiyah fled to Fars. Al-Hajjāj ordered Muhammad bin Qasim then governor of Fars, to summon Atiyah and demand him to curse Ali.

If Atiyah refused, he was to be flogged four hundred times and his head and beard shaved as humiliation. Al-Tabari narrates that Atiyah refused to curse Ali and he was punished. According to Chachnama, he was the commander of the right wing of bin Qasim's army after the conquest of Armabil. Modern historians, like Yohanan Friedmann and André Wink, question the historical authenticity of this claim in Chachnama. Friedmann writes:-


 * "One of the most conspicuous elements of this kind is the large number of warriors and traditionists (scholars of Hadith) who figure in the Chachnama and are absent in other accounts of the conquest".

Other early historians like Ibn Hajar Al-Asqalani and Tabari record that he moved on to Khurasan and returned to Iraq after the ruler had been changed. Dr. Hamza Ebrahim (talk) 16:05, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
