Description

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Al- ajj j ibn Y suf was an Arab administrator and politician during the Umayyad Caliphate. His given name was Kulayb but he changed it to al- ajj j ('The Pilgrim') before being appointed Governor of Iraq. Prior to becoming governor of Iraq he was a teacher of the Qur'an and used this knowledge to convince the caliph and his subordinates of his tactics. Along his rule al-Hajjaj killed one hundred and twenty thousand men and thirty thousand women. There were children in his prisons also. Al- ajj j bin Y suf's period saw the Arabs on their zenith and he played an essential part in it. He is also credited for introducing the diacritic points to the Arabic script and for the first time Al- ajj j convinced the caliph to adopt a special currency for the Muslim world. This led to war with the Byzantine Empire under Justinian II. The Byzantines were led by Leontios at the Battle of Sebastopolis in 692 in Asia Minor and were decisively defeated by the Caliph after the defection of a large contingent of Slavs. The Islamic currency was then made the only currency exchange in the Muslim world
