The Battle of Dhi Qar (ePub)

The day of Dhi Qar is the first day that the Arabs were defeated by Al -Ajam and Al -Isfahani mentioned in his book The Songs that it happened at the time of the Prophet Muhammad -may God bless him and grant him peace -in which the fighting took place between the Arabs and the Persians in Iraq and the Arabs won. It was caused by that Kesra Abraiz was angry at Al -Numan bin Al -Mundhir, the king of Al -Hirah, and his chest was deceived by Zaid bin Uday Al -Abadi because he killed his father Uday bin Zaid, so Al -Numan resorted to Hani bin Masoud Al -Shaibani, so his family, his money and his weapon entrusted him, then he returned and he surrendered to Kisra, then he was imprisoned and then killed him. Kesra was sent to Hani bin Masoud asking him to hand him over the deposit of Al -Numan, and Hani refused to pay him to pay the paste, so Kesra was angry at Bani Shaiban and determined to eradicate them, so he prepared for that a huge army of the Persians led by Al -Harrz and Jalabazin, and from the Arab tribes loyal to him, from the victory and the tiger bin Qasit, Qudhay and Iyad, and the leadership of these tribes, Iyas bin Qubaisa Al -Ta'i, and sent with them his pirates, Al -Shahba and Al -Dossar. When the news reached the sons of Shaiban, they traveled in the tribes of Bakr bin Wael, and sects were gone from them, and they consulted in their matter, Hanzala bin Sayyar Al -Ajli, and their opinion settled on the emergence of Batha Dhi Qar, which is water for Bakr bin Wael close to the position of Kufa.
