ذِكْرُ عِدَّةِ حَوَادِثَ وَفِي سنة اثنتين وسبعين ومائة عَزَلَ الرَّشِيدُ إِسْحَاقَ بْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْمَوْصِلِ ، وَاسْتَعْمَلَ سَعِيدَ بْنَ سَلْمٍ الْبَاهِلِيَّ، وَعَزَلَ الرَّشِيدُ يَزِيدَ بْنَ مَزْيَدِ بْنِ زَائِدَةَ، وَهُوَ ابْنُ أَخِي مَعْنِ بْنِ زَائِدَةَ، عَنْ أَرْمِينِيَّةَ، وَاسْتَعْمَلَ عَلَيْهَا أَخَاهُ عُبَيْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ الْمَهْدِيِّ. وَفِيهَا غَزَا الصَّائِفَةَ إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ . وَفِيهَا وَضَعَ الرَّشِيدُ عَلَى أَهْلِ السَّوَادِ الْعُشْرَ الَّذِي كَانَ يُؤْخَذُ مِنْهُمْ بَعْدَ النِّصْفِ . وَحَجَّ بِالنَّاسِ يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ الْمَنْصُورِ. عَمُّ هَارُونَ الرَّشِيدِ. وَعُمَّالُ السَّنَةِ مَا قَبْلَهَا. ومِنَ الْحَوَادِثِ فِيهَا: شُخُوصُ الرَّشِيدِ إِلَى مَرْجِ الْقَلْعَةِ، ثُمَّ مُرْتَادًا بِهَا مَنْزِلًا يَنْزِلُهُ، وَكَانَ قَدِ اسْتَثْقَلَ مَدِينَةَ السَّلَامِ وَكَانَ يُسَمِّيهَا الْبُخَارَ، فَخَرَجَ إِلَى مَرْجِ الْقَلْعَةِ فَاعْتَلَّ بِهَا، وَانْصَرَفَ، وَسُمِّيَتْ تِلْكَ السُّفْرَةُ بِسُفْرَةِ الْمُرْتَادِ. وَفِيهَا: تَزَوَّجَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْعَبَّاسَةَ بِنْتَ الْمَهْدِيِّ، وَهِيَ أَوَّلُ بِنْتِ خَلِيفَةٍ مِنْ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ نُقِلَتْ مِنْ بَلَدٍ إِلَى بَلَدٍ، نَقَلَهَا إِلَى الْبَصْرَةِ، وَأَوَّلُ بِنْتِ خَلِيفَةٍ نُقِلَتْ مِنْ خُلَفَاءِ بَنِي أُمَيَّةَ صَفِيَّةُ بِنْتُ مُعَاوِيَةَ، نُقِلَتْ إِلَى الْبَصْرَةِ إِلَى مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ ذَكَرَهُ الصُّولِيُّ. وَفِيهَا: وَلِيَ مُعَاذُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الْقَضَاءَ. عن إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَرَفَةَ قَالَ: وَلِيَ مُعَاذُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ قَضَاءَ الْبَصْرَةِ سَنَةَ اثْنَتَيْنِ وَسَبْعِينَ، وَكَانَ لَهُ مَحَلٌّ وَمَنْزِلَةٌ، فَلَمْ يَحْمَدْ أَهْلُ الْبَصْرَةِ أَمْرَهُ [وَكَتَبُوا] وَكَثُرَ الْكَارِهُونَ لَهُ وَالْوَقَائِعُ عَلَيْهِ، فَلَمَّا صُرِفَ عَنِ الْقَضَاءِ أَظْهَرَ أَهْلُ الْبَصْرَةِ السُّرُورَ، وَنَحَرُوا النُّحُورَ وَتَصَدَّقُوا بِلَحْمِهَا، وَاسْتَتَرَ فِي بَيْتِهِ خَوْفَ الْوُثُوبِ عَلَيْهِ، ثُمَّ شَخَصَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ إِلَى الرَّشِيدِ فَاعْتَذَرَ، فَقَبِلَ عُذْرَهُ وَوَهَبَ لَهُ أَلْفَ دِينَارٍ، وَكَانَ مِنَ الْأَثْبَاتِ فِي الْحَدِيثِ.

✧ Mention of several events In the year one hundred and seventy-two, al-Rashīd dismissed Isḥāq b. Muḥammad from al-Mawṣil, and appointed Saʿīd b. Salm al-Bāhilī. Al-Rashīd dismissed Yazīd b. Mazyad b. Zāʾida, the nephew of Maʿn b. Zāʾida, from Armenia, and appointed over it his brother ʿUbayd Allāh b. al-Mahdī. In it, Isḥāq b. Sulaymān b. ʿAlī raided the summer expedition. In it, al-Rashīd imposed on the people of the Sawād the tithe that used to be taken from them after the half. Yaʿqūb b. al-Manṣūr, the paternal uncle of Hārūn al-Rashīd, led the people in pilgrimage. The governors were those of the previous year. Among the events in it: Al-Rashīd set out for Marj al-Qalʿa, then scouted there for a dwelling to settle in. He had found the City of Peace burdensome and used to call it "the vapors." He went out to Marj al-Qalʿa, fell ill there, and returned. That journey was named the Journey of the Scout. In it: Muḥammad b. Sulaymān b. ʿAlī married al-ʿAbbāsa bt. al-Mahdī. She was the first daughter of a caliph from the Banū Hāshim to be moved from one town to another; he moved her to al-Baṣra. The first daughter of a caliph to be moved among the Umayyad caliphs was Ṣafiyya bt. Muʿāwiya, who was moved to al-Baṣra to Muḥammad b. Ziyād. Al-Ṣūlī mentioned this. In it: Muʿādh b. Muʿādh assumed the judgeship. Ibrāhīm b. Muḥammad b. ʿArafa said: Muʿādh b. Muʿādh assumed the judgeship of al-Baṣra in the year one hundred and seventy-two. He had standing and rank, but the people of al-Baṣra did not praise his conduct, and those who disliked him and the complaints against him multiplied. When he was removed from the judgeship, the people of al-Baṣra showed joy, slaughtered camels, and gave their meat as alms. He hid in his house fearing an attack on him. Then he went to al-Rashīd and apologized, and he accepted his excuse and gave him a thousand dinars. He was among the reliable authorities in hadith.
