Fadlullah Rawandi say: A leader named Akbur entered.
One of us said: This is pronounced with ‘a’ on the Ain.
The Sayyid said: Do not say this, but pronounce it as Ukbur.

Talukuburi pronounced as such and said: In a village of
Hamadan, called Varsheed, reside the descendants of this Ukbur,
from whom are Iskandar bin Darbis2 bin Ukbur and he was a
righteous ruler, who saw the Qaaem (a.s.) a few times.
He has also narrated from Sayyid Fazlullah that Ukbur,
Maawi, Dabyan and Darbis were Shia rulers in Iraq and their
prominent leaders, who were accorded great honor, was Iskandar
as mentioned before. End.
