The Year 107
ذِكْرُ عِدَّةِ حَوَادِثَ وَفِي سنة سبع ومائة عَزَلَ هِشَامٌ: الْجَرَّاحَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْحَكَمِيَّ عَنْ أَرْمِينِيَّةَ وَأَذْرَبِيجَانَ، وَاسْتَعْمَلَ عَلَيْهَا أَخَاهُ مَسْلَمَةَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ، فَاسْتَعْمَلَ عَلَيْهَا مَسْلَمَةُ الْحَارِثَ بْنَ عَمْرٍو الطَّائِيَّ، فَافْتَتَحَ مِنْ بَلَدِ التُّرْكِ رُسْتَاقًا وَقُرًى كَثِيرَةً، وَأَثَّرَ فِيهَا أَثَرًا حَسَنًا. وَفِيهَا نَقَلَ أَسَدٌ مَنْ كَانَ بِالْبَرُوقَانِ إِلَى بَلْخٍ مِنَ الْجُنْدِ، وَأَقْطَعَ كُلَّ مَنْ كَانَ لَهُ بِالْبَرُوقَانِ بِقَدْرِ مَسْكَنِهِ، وَمَنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ مَسْكَنٌ أَقْطَعَهُ مَسْكَنًا، وَأَرَادَ أَنْ يُنْزِلَهُمْ عَلَى الْأَخْمَاسِ، فَقِيلَ لَهُ: إِنَّهُمْ يَتَعَصَّبُونَ، فَخَلَطَ بَيْنَهُمْ. وَتَوَلَّى بِنَاءَ مَدِينَةِ بَلْخٍ بَرْمَكُ أَبُو خَالِدِ بْنِ بَرْمَكَ، وَبَيْنَهَا وَبَيْنَ الْبَرُوقَانِ فَرْسَخَانِ. وَحَجَّ بِالنَّاسِ هَذِهِ السَّنَةَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، وَكَانَ عُمَّالُ الْأَمْصَارِ مَنْ تَقَدَّمَ ذِكْرُهُمْ فِي السَّنَةِ قَبْلَهَا. فِيهَا خَرَجَ بِالْيَمَنِ رَجُلٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ: عَبَّادٌ الرُّعَيْنِيُّ. فَدَعَا إِلَى مَذْهَبِ الْخَوَارِجِ، وَاتَّبَعَهُ فِرْقَةٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ، وَحَكَمُوا، فَقَاتَلَهُمْ يُوسُفُ بْنُ عُمَرَ فَقَتَلَهُ وَقَتَلَ أَصْحَابَهُ، وَكَانُوا ثَلَاثَمِائَةٍ. وَلِلَّهِ الْحَمْدُ. وَفِيهَا وَقَعَ بِالشَّامِ طَاعُونٌ شَدِيدٌ. وَفِيهَا غَزَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ الصَّائِفَةَ وَعَلَى جَيْشِ أَهْلِ الشَّامِ مَيْمُونُ بْنُ مِهْرَانَ فَقَطَعُوا الْبَحْرَ إِلَى قُبْرُسَ . وَغَزَا مَسْلَمَةُ فِي الْبَرِّ فِي جَيْشٍ آخَرَ. وَفِي سَنَةِ سَبْعٍ مِنْ أَيَّامِهِ: فُتِحَتْ قَيْصَرِيَّةُ الرُّومِ بِالسَّيْفِ.
Translation
✧ Mention of several events In the year one hundred and seven, Hishām dismissed al-Jarrāḥ b. ʿAbd Allāh al-Ḥakamī from Armenia and Azerbaijan, and appointed over them his brother Maslama b. ʿAbd al-Malik. Maslama then appointed over them al-Ḥārith b. ʿAmr al-Ṭāʾī, who conquered from the land of the Turks a rustāq and many villages, and made a good impression there. In it, Asad transferred those of the army who were at al-Barūqān to Balkh, and granted each one who had a dwelling at al-Barūqān the equivalent of his dwelling; and whoever had no dwelling, he granted him a dwelling. He wanted to settle them by fifths, but it was said to him that they were fanatically attached to their groups, so he mixed them together. The building of the city of Balkh was undertaken by Barmak, father of Khālid b. Barmak, and between it and al-Barūqān are two farsakhs. Ibrāhīm b. Hishām led the people in pilgrimage this year, and the governors of the amṣār were those previously mentioned in the year before it. In it, a man called ʿAbbād al-Ruʿaynī rose in Yemen, called to the doctrine of the Khawārij, and a group of people followed him, and they ruled. Yūsuf b. ʿUmar fought them and killed him and his companions, who were three hundred. Praise be to God. In it, a severe plague occurred in Syria. In it, Muʿāwiya b. Hishām raided the summer expedition, with Maymūn b. Mihrān in command of the army of the people of Syria, and they crossed the sea to Cyprus. Maslama raided by land in another army. In the year seven of his reign: Caesarea of the Romans was conquered by the sword.
