Note 147
The expedition of Tabuc is recorded by our
ordinary historians Abulfeda (Vit. Moham. p. 123 - 127) and
Gagnier, (Vie de Mahomet, tom. iii. p. 147 - 163: ) but we
have the advantage of appealing to the original evidence of
the Koran, (c. 9, p. 154, 165,) with Sale's learned and
rational notes.]
