Excerpt from The Imperial Gazetteer of India, Vol. 10: Multan to Palhalli Sind early fell a prey to the aggressive Muhammadan power, and Multan District, like the rest of the kingdom, was conquered for the Khalifat by Muhammad Kasim. During the decline of the Khalifs, their influence naturally grew weak in the remote Province of Sind; and about the close of the 9th century, two independent kingdoms sprang up, with their capitals at Mansura and Militia A native Arab dynasty of Amlrs continued to reign over the country about the junction of the Chenab and the Sutlej, until the rise of the Ghazni Empire.
