41.2
It is related by Muhammad Hindi, who heard it from Mushta-ir Abi, who again had heard it from some venerable old men of Hind, that when Dahar’s wife Ladi was made a prisoner after Dahar’s death, Muhammad Kasim felt inclined to purchase Ladi for himself from her captors. Accordingly he wrote to Hajjaj asking his permission to do so. Hajjaj forwarded his application to the Khalifah Walid with his recommendation. (In due course of time) an order was received from the Khalifah granting the permission for the purchase of Ladi. Muhammad Kasim thereupon purchased her and made her his wife.
