Read Article Backpackers News about Abu Dalaf Al-Yanabi and his exciting journey to Tibet
The article was written by Hisham Boudra about strange things mentioned in the book “Wonders of the Nation” by Abu Dalaf Al-Yanabi. This book, like many heritage books, is a forgery or invented by the author. He invented the proverbs without travelling or traveling.
At the beginning of the article, Budra stated that the reason for his trip to Yanbui was an order from Khorasan Prince Nasr to go to China to propose marriage to the daughter of the Chinese king. He said:
"The curiosity and wonder in what he tells Backpackers Abu Dalaf Al-Yanabi, geographer and poet, in his book “The Miracle of Nations” … He traveled to Tibet and China at the request of the Emir of Khorasan, Samanid prince Nasr bin Ahmad bin Ismail, at whose court Al-Yanabi resided from 942/913 AD to the present day. Backpackers Accompanied by a group of ambassadors, the purpose was to engage a daughter of the King of China with a Samanid prince."
Of course, the reason for this trip is unreasonable, because marrying a polytheist woman is forbidden, and according to history, this prince is a Muslim, so how could he marry a pagan woman who worships idols or gods? Allah says:
" Do not marry polytheistic women unless they believe "؟
Boudla said Al-Yanabi wrote his book after returning from his travels, and that many… Backpackers Historians quote him:
"During his return from China, Abu Daraf wrote a book titled “National Miracle”, which later became a source of inspiration for geographers and historians such as Masudi, Yaqut, Qazwini, and Dimashqi."
Budra told us that the hypocrites in Yanbu included an Arab tribe called the Baghraj, who had a kingdom there, were descendants of Zayd bin Ali, worshiped the Quran and believed in Ali’s divinity.
"Abu Daraf described the tribes and regions he passed through during his visit to Tibet and China and on his return, saying that he found a tribe called Baghraj in one area of Tibet who worked with weapons. They had a powerful king who claimed to trace his lineage back to Yahya bin Zayd. This king had a gilded Quran with verses mourning Zayd on the back. After spending some time with them, he found that they worshiped the Quran.
They say that Zayd is the king of the Arabs and Ali ibn Abi Talib is the god of the Arabs. Their rule is hereditary by the Alawites, descendants of Zayd. Abu Daraf noticed that when they turned toward the sky, they opened their mouths and looked with excitement with their eyes, and they claimed that Ali would descend and rise there.
Their kings all have straight noses and big eyes, and they eat mutton, not lamb.
The Bagraj tribe had a powerful king
Abu Daraf continued his narration, saying that during his journey he met another tribe, called the Tibetans. They had a city of reeds, inhabited by Muslims, Magians, and Christians, who paid tribute to King Bagraj. Their system of government was elective. And it was democratic, not hereditary."
Of course, the authors of this book seem to want to provoke conflict between Sunnis and Shias, they claim that Shias worship Ali and the Quran and attribute their behavior to madmen, which reminds us that the purpose of those who wrote the Thousand and One Nights included inciting conflict, and they certainly used the Sunni Samani to exchange for the Shias.
Boudra tells us that Al-Yanba’i saw Arab tribes in another area, which were the Yemeni tribes of Tuba’s time, saying:
"Abu Daraf then told us about another region he had discovered on the way, called Karib, where Bedouin Arab tribes lived, who followed the kings who were believed to have invaded China long ago and still worshipped idols. They spoke Old Arabic, they knew no other language, and they wrote in Himyarit. Their rule was hereditary, and they had laws that regulated their social and economic life and bound them to a truce with China.
This is one of his messages. Backpackers Abu Daraf recounts his observations of the Tibetan region bordering China."
Of course, he and his family perished because of their disbelief, and no one was left, as Allah the Almighty says:
"Before them, Noah’s people, the companions of the earth and Thamud (12), Ad and Pharaoh, Lot’s brothers (13), the companions of the jungle and the people of Taba all denied the messenger, so his promise came true."
Therefore, these tribes cannot be from that so-called lineage, because according to the Quran, they are a perished lineage, instead it is plausible if they are found to be Yemeni tribes, and in fact, there are very few villages in Yemen at the moment. Afghanistan speaks Arabic because their people are Arabs, some of whom may exist in the Caucasus.
Boudela spoke of the presence of Arabs near China and in China itself, and he concluded that their presence was due to the invasions of Tuba and others like him.
"The conclusion is that the Arab invasion of Tibet from Yemen … took place during the era of the Himyarite state of Yemen … and that several tribes migrated from Yemen to settle in Tibet before and after the advent of Islam. .
As for Zaidiism, it is an Islamic sect that migrated to the Chinese border as people who believed in it migrated, and apparently their teachings were gradually distorted over time. … until Ali became a god-like being in their eyes.
Abu Daraf is considered to be the first to elaborate on the subject through his own observations… although Ibn Faqih al-Hamdani preceded Abu Daraf and mentioned Arab settlements in the area in his statement about Samarkand:
(And Simr ibn Afrigis destroyed it, so it was called Shamarkand, and Tabib ibn Simr built it after him. He restored it to its best condition and penetrated into the land of China, killed its king, founded the city of Tibet, and placed in it an army of his companions, who are there today.) This paragraph is taken from the book “Mukhtasar Kitab al-Buldan”, page 326.
Al-Masoudi appeared in the fourth century AH, followed by Al-Hamawi in the sixth, Al-Qazwini in the seventh, Al-Damashqi in the eighth, and Al-Nuwayri in the ninth, so they narrated the deeds of Abu Daraf, or some of them…"
All the accounts in these books are just narratives based on baseless, non-first-hand accounts, which is the first journey I mentioned, but their truthfulness or even falsity cannot be verified except from the Quran.
When Boudela inquired about the arrival of the Arabs in these regions and their settlement there, he replied:
"Did Arab tribes reach Tibet and settle there?
However, ancient Arab historians and geographers disagree on who was primarily responsible for establishing the presence of Arab tribes in Tibet bordering China.
We see that the historian Masudi believes that it is likely that in the fourth century AD, the Himyarite king Abu Kalb ibn Tabi’, nicknamed Akan, led two thousand knights to attack Khorasan, Sughd and China. .. And Al-Nuwayri believes that this event dates back to the third century AD … when the Himyarite king Shammar Yarash led about 300,000 soldiers to invade Persia and Khorasan … Sughd destroyed Persia. Sughd built a city named after him behind the Amu Darya, which was distorted and was Samarkand … The Himyarite king Shammar continued to advance until he reached China … So Shammar was deceived by the ministers of the king of China. King Shammar claimed that he was ready to attack because he had a dispute with the king of China, and he trusted the ministers and led them to a barren desert, and many of them were thirsty and hungry. So China was saved from Himian Arab rule (most likely the region was Tibet, maybe some of the Shama army survived so they integrated into Tibetan society and built the first cornerstones of the Arab tribes in the region.. just a personal opinion.
Other historians believe that King Asaad Abu Karb (420-385 AD) invaded Azerbaijan, defeated the Turks, signed a truce with the Indian king, and continued his march to Sogd until he invaded China, then left, returning to his homeland with booty and captives, leaving behind some of the people who settled and multiplied there."
As mentioned earlier, we find three conflicting accounts about the king’s name: once it was Abu Kalb ibn Taba’, once it was Shammar Yalash, and once it was Asad, who conducted the battle, and the number of his troops.
All this is impossible because according to the Quran, all the pagan nations, i.e. the ancient kingdoms, were destroyed for their disbelief, except the people of Yunus (may Allah bless him and grant him peace), as Allah the Almighty said:
"If there is not a town that believes and its belief benefits it, except the people of Yunus, they will not believe"
Bhudra said of the name Tibet that it is derived from the word “thabit”, where “tha” is transformed into “ta”, saying:
"Tibet is one of the centers of Asian civilization
Regardless of who was responsible for the presence of Arabs in Tibet, the Himyanites, who were an ancient civilized people at that time, contributed to the establishment of civilization in Tibet, which suffered from the barren nomadic life. They learned to write and made bows and arrows to defend against enemies.
Some people believe that the word Tibet is taken from the word “established”, which means that after the Arabs conquered the area, here it refers to the Himians, who settled and settled in the area, so it was changed to Tibet."
Bhudra touches on the view that the Tibetan people were once Arabs, sometimes left in the books of historians, so he says:
"Consensus
The historian Al-Qazwini believes that the Tibetan people are of Turkic descent…their descendants are the Himyars who came during the Trabai dynasty…
Al-Dimashqi Al-Arabi, 727 AH, considered the Tibetan people to be urban and nomadic peoples… Their language was Turkish, and they used to call the one who possessed them Tabi’, so they began to call him Khaqan, and their region was between the Turks, Indians and Chinese, and their complexion and character were more similar to the Arabs than all other peoples.
The Tibetan people most likely changed their ancient Arabic language to Turkish."
This quote suggests that not all travels took place and those who wrote about them are simply the ones who are writing history and heritage incorrectly because if they had actually gone, the writing would be the same, but the text is contradictory.
Boudela concluded his speech by saying that there is no confirmed information yet and stated:
"notes
There is no recorded or confirmed information here, and what is to be mentioned here dates back to a bygone era when information was gathered orally or through books which did not provide much explanation on the subject.
There are no recent studies that address this question in a scientific way.
But we should not forget that there are many Chinese and Tibetan families who claim Arab ancestry."
