Gadjiev M., Shikhsaidov A. The Darband-nāma on Hārun Al-Rashīd and a Newly Discovered Arabic Inscription from A. H. 176 // Manuscripta Orientalia. Vol. 8. No. 3. September 2002. P. 3—10.
Among the vast manuscript legacy of the peoples of
Daghestan, of especial historical interest is the well known
sixteenth – seventeenth century work Darhand-nāma by
Muḥammad Awwābī Aqtāshī [1]. In his work, the author
refers not only to Arab and Persian writers of the ninth – tenth centuries (al-Balādhurī, al-Ya‘qūbī, al-Tabarī, al-Kūfī,
etc.), but local medieval chronicles that have not
come down to us. The Darband-nāma contains important
historical information. Of special note is its treatment of the
activities of caliph Hārūn al-Rashid (r. 786-809) and his
Caucasian governors in Derbent (Arab. Bāb al-abwāb). The
text runs that “when the date reached the one hundred seventy-
third year (A. D. 789/90), Hārūn al-Rashid sent
Khuzayma ibn Ḥāzim out with an army. He restored the
ruined places in Derbent, provided Derbent with running
water, built bridges in various places, and improved and
developed Derbent. He sent to Hārūn al-Rashid those people
who had committed unseemly deeds. When Hārūn al-Rashid
himself arrived in Derbent, he did much to build up [the city].
He ran irrigation trenches to Dcrbcnt. built mills. [and] gave
orders to plant many orchards and gardens. He also ordered
that [funds] be collected [for] maintaining the irrigation
trenches from profits from agriculture and orchards. He freed
the residents of Derbent from mill fees. Expenses (kharj) for
the maintenance of mills were [to come] from profits from
agriculture and orchards. He built granaries and mosques in
each neighbourhood. [As a result of his activities] Derbent
became a comfortable place to live. Hārūn al-Rashid gathered
the inhabitants of Derbent, when he arrived from the
capital of the caliphate to this city, gave them instruction and
came back [to the capital]”...
