The popularity of Nasr is demonstrated also by the growth of a tradition round his name. This appears in Tabarī somewhat unobtrusively in isolated passages, unfortunately without quotation of Madāʾinī’s authorities. According to the “Fihrist” (103. 12) Madāʾinī wrote two books on the administrations of Asad b. ʿAbdullah and Nasr b. Sayyār, a fact which confirms the special importance of these two governors in the history of Khurāsān. Probably Asad was more popular with the dihqāns and Nasr with the people.
