Mujjāʿa ibn Siʿr al-Saʿdī al-Tamīmī was the Umayyad lieutenant governor of Uman and later of Sindh under the governor of Iraq and the eastern caliphate, al-Hajjaj ibn Yusuf.{{sfn|Crone|1980|p=136}} Al-Hajjaj considered appointing him lieutenant governor of Khurasan, but was dissuaded by Caliph Abd al-Malik and ultimately selected Qutayba ibn Muslim.{{sfn|Crone|1980|p=136}}{{sfn|Hinds|1990|p=85}}

Conquest of Oman

Unlike the rest of the caliphate, the region of Oman remained outside of direct Umayyad rule.{{sfn|Landen|1967|p=44}}{{sfn|Badger|1871|p=1}} Under Caliph Abd al-Malik (685–705), the viceroy of Iraq, al-Hajjaj ibn Yusuf, set about restoring and expanding Umayyad rule across the entire Persian Gulf, including Oman.{{sfn|Landen|1967|p=44}}{{sfn|Badger|1871|p=1–2}} The region had been autonomously ruled by the Azdite dynasty of the Julandids.{{sfn|Landen|1967|p=44}}{{sfn|Badger|1871|p=1–2}} Al-Hajjaj’s intitial attempts were repulsed and a large expeditionary force was dispatched under Mujjaa’s brother al-Qasim.{{sfn|Badger|1871|p=2}} The latter was slain and his army routed, prompting al-Hajjaj to appoint Mujjaa in his place.{{sfn|Badger|1871|p=2}} Mujjaa was equipped with a 40,000-strong army consisting of troops from the Mudhar and Azd tribal factions of Basra garrison.{{sfn|Badger|1871|p=3}} Half the army attacked by land, while Mujjaa led the other half by sea. The land army was defeated by Sulayman ibn Abbad ibn Julanda, while Mujjaa engaged Sulaymans brother Said at Samalil.{{sfn|Badger|1871|p=4}} Said and Sulayman withdrew into Jabal al-Amhara where they alluded Mujjaas troops.{{sfn|Badger|1871|p=3}} They later ambushed Mujjaa ships docked off the coast near Muscat and defeated Mujjaa in battle. Al-Hajjaj sent 5,000 reinforcements under Abd al-Rahman ibn Sulayman.{{sfn|Badger|1871|p=5}} The combined pressure of al-Hajjajs generals compelled the Julandid brothers into fleeing for the Zanj coast (Horn of Africa) and Mujjaa and Abd al-Rahman subjected Oman to Umayyad rule.{{sfn|Landen|1967|p=44}}{{sfn|Badger|1871|p=5}}
