Arabic & Persian
Muzarrid
Yazid ibn Dirar, called Muzarrid, was the eldest of three brothers, the others being the more famous ash-Shammakh and Jaz'. All three were mukhadrims, born in paganism and converted to Islam, and lived into the Caliphate of 'Uthman.
Lyall judges that Muzarrid devoted himself chiefly to satire; Ode XVII is attributed by many authorities to his brother Jaz'.
