Of greater significance, the first occurrence of "Triple Confession of Faith," including the Tawhid (that God is one), the phrase, Muhammad rasul Allah (that Muhammad is his prophet), and the human nature of Jesus (rasul Allah wa-abduhu), is found in Abd al-Malik's inscription in the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem, dated 691 A.D. ! Before this inscription the Muslim confession of faith cannot be attested at all.
As a rule, after 691 A.D. and on through the Marwanid dynasty (until 750 A.D.), Muhammad's name usually occurs whenever religious formulae are used, such as on coins, milestones, and papyrus "protocols".Drivelling in TPD is not a mental health issue. We're just community blogging, that's all.

AL-HAJJAJ B. YUSUF (d.714)
Governor of Iraq under the Umayyad caliphs Abd al-Malik and Walid.
Al-Hajjaj first distinguished himself in the year 691 by restoring discipline to the troops which the caliph Abd al-Malik intended to send to Iraq against its governor, the brother of Ibn al-Zubayr. After the defeat of the Iraqi governor, al-Hajjaj was sent to Mecca with Syrian troops under his command to subdue the rebellion of Ibn al-Zubayr and his followers. After a seven-month seige, Ibn al-Zubayr was killed and unity was restored to the Muslim empire.Drivelling in TPD is not a mental health issue. We're just community blogging, that's all.

The Manor of Fulham belonged to the See of London, long before the Conquest. It was given to Bishop Erkenttald, and his successors, about the year 691, by Tyrhtflus, a Bishop, with the consent of Sigard, King of the East Saxons, and Conrad, King of the Mercians. Nor did the See of London lose possession of it till the period of the Interregnum, when it was sold.Drivelling in TPD is not a mental health issue. We're just community blogging, that's all.
