Years: 713 - 713

Caliph Al-Walid I, like his father, Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan, has continued to allow his disreputable governor Al-Hajjaj bin Yousef free rein in the East, and his trust in Al-Hajjaj has paid off with the successful conquests of Transoxiana, Sindh, and Iberia.

Hajjaj has been responsible for picking the generals who led these successful campaigns, and is well known from his own successful campaign against Ibn Zubayr in the early 690s during the reign of Al-Walid's father.
