He was known by the title al-Uraidhi, because he lived in an area called Uraidh, about 4 miles (or 6.4 km) from Medina. He was also known by the nickname Abu Hasan (i.e. father of Hasan). He was a great Muslim scholar.
ʿAli ibn al-Husayn ibn Quraysh ibn Shibl (Arabic: علي بن الحسين بن قريش بن شبل) (also known as al-Bukhari) was a Muslim military commander who gained control of the Abbasid province of Fars in the mid-860s.

Bulchan (Bulčan) or Bluchan (Blučan) was, according to Georgian chronicles, a Khazar general around the year 800 CE. According to the Georgian sources, Bulchan led the Khazar army in its capture of Tbilisi.

When he returned home with the news, the hapless Bulchan was killed by the khagan in a fit of rage.
The connection between Bulchan and Bulan, if any, is unknown; Peter B. Golden has commented on the common etymological roots of the two names.[1]

After being defeated at Babagesh he resided in castles in Dasin.[1][2] Mutasim in response sent an army under command of Abdullah bin Ans al-Azdi, resulting in an armed confrontation between the Arab army and Kurdish Yazidis. Due to the difficulty of the terrain, the Arab army proved unsuccessful, suffered heavy casualties and a number of its commanders including Abdullah's uncle Ishaq bin Ans and his father-in-law were killed.
Mutassim had purchased a Khazar slave, called Itakh. He appointed him as commander of his army. Itakh defeated Mir Jafar's troops in 841 and killed many Yazidis.[3] In order to avoid being captured alive, Mir Jafar committed suicide by drinking poison.

The uprising was defeated, and he was executed by lashing in the same autumn.[3]

Saragurs
The Saragurs or Saraguri (Greek: Σαράγουροι, Syriac: s.r.w.r.g.wr,[1] Šarağurs) was a Eurasian Oghur (Turkic)[2] nomadic tribe mentioned in the 5th and 6th centuries. They originated from Western Siberia and the Kazakh steppes, from where they were displaced north of the Caucasus by the Sabirs.[3]
Around 463 AD, the Akatziri and other tribes that had been part of the Hunnic union were attacked by the Saragurs, one of the first Oghur tribes that entered the Pontic-Caspian steppe as the result of migrations set off in Inner Asia by the Hephthalite Uar attacking the Kidarite Xiyon.[4] The Akatziri had lived north of the Black Sea, west of Crimea.[5] According to Priscus, in 463 Ernakh and Dengizich sent the representatives of Saragurs, Oghurs (or Urogi,[5] perhaps a Byzantine error for Uyghurs[6]) and Onogurs came to the Emperor in Constantinople,[7] and explained they had been driven out of their homeland by the Sabirs, who had been attacked by the Avars in Inner Asia.[8][9] In 469, the Saragurs requested and received Roman protection.[10] In the late 500s, the Saragurs, Kutrigurs, Utigurs and Onogurs held part of the steppe north of the Black Sea.[11] In 555, Pseudo-Zacharias Rhetor mentions the Saragurs as one of thirteen nomadic tribes north of Caucasus, however, it is uncertain if the tribe still existed at this time.[12]

Abbot of Vale Royal
Vale Royal Abbey is a medieval abbey, and later a country house, located in Whitegate, between Northwich and Winsford in Cheshire, England. Over its 278-year period of operation, it had at least 21 abbots (possibly 22).
The abbey was founded in 1270 by Prince Edward for monks of the austere Cistercian order. Edward intended the abbey to be on the grandest scale. However, financial difficulties meant that these ambitions could not be fulfilled and the final building was considerably smaller than planned. The project ran into problems in other ways. The abbey was frequently grossly mismanaged, relations with the local population were so poor as to regularly cause outbreaks of large-scale violence on a number of occasions, and internal discipline was frequently bad.
