716 CE

The Arab position in Transoxiana swiftly crumbles after Qutayba's death.

His successors will be unable to maintain his conquests in the face of local revolts and invasion by the Turgesh khaganate, and most of Transoxiana is soon abandoned or becomes hotly contested territory in the years after his death.
