The Chachnāma (Fatḥnāma-yi Sind) 27: Muhammad Kásim arrives at Makrán.

27

The writers of histories and the recorders of events state that Abdurrahman son of Abdulláh has related the following on the authority of Abdul Malik son of Kais, who said: “I was with Muhammad Kásim when he arrived in Makrán and had an interview with Muhammad Hárún. Muhammad Hárún first went with Muhammad Kásim on foot (out of respect to him), but Muhammad Kásim made him ride a horse and then they went together to their camp. When they alighted Muhammad Hárún sent many presents and provisions to his distinguished guest, and he spoke very courteously and respectfully of the Arab general, saying, “with such an army and magnificence, and with such wisdom and skill and courage and ability, he is sure to conquer Hind and Sind.”
