Governor of Sindh[edit]

Among the Sindh governors appointed by the Abbasid caliphate, Hisham ibn Amr al-Taghlibi was the most courageous ruler. He was appointed during the caliphate of al-Mansur (136 A.H. to 158 A.H.). on reaching Sindh, he re-annexed all those territories of the Province which had been receded due to rebellions and turmoil during his predecessor's rule.[3]
