140 - Harb informed me, saying: 'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Amr al-Nasri narrated to us, saying: I heard Sawwar ibn 'Umarah narrating from Abu Yahya al-Sari ibn Yahya, who said: 'Abd al-Karim ibn Rushayd narrated to me, saying: When the Azariqah were in Fars, the people of al-Ahwaz began to send horses and carry them to them. So al-Ahnaf ibn Qays said: "I do not know the people of al-Ahwaz but that their captivity has become lawful."
