Kimí might without much violence be changed into Límí, and thus explain the name Al-Límiyín. At-Tekrúr we may assign, on the authority of Abdu-r-Raḥmán Aga, to Marra, which probably extended from Zamfara westwards between Guber and Kábí. The Baghárah or Baḳárah were probably a tribe of the desert. The Kaúkaú of Ibn Sʿaíd is too far east to be the city of that name on the Great River; we must suppose him therefore to extend this name to Karkar.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
