Note 160 — TEKRÚR.
Reading edition
Tekrúr, according to El Bekrí (Not. et Extr. tom. XII. p. 637), was at no great distance from Ṣínghánah towards the south-west. El Idrísí always unites Silla and Tekrúr. The date of Wárjání’s death is given by El Bekrí (MS. B.M. fol. 110), who also states that the people of Silla embraced Mohammedism at that chief’s persuasion. Wárjání was probably a Zenágah, a great number of proper names in the Berber language beginning with the syllable wer or wár (the negative particle?). A prince of Tekrúr accompanied the Lumtúnah in their first religious wars.
