The number of its fortresses, which the Diwan took in its estimation, was one thousand fortresses less thirty. It had many towers, and we have mentioned its location and the place of Al-Murabba, which was surrounded on all sides by piled rocks and hard, inlaid stones without soil, as if its land had been sifted of soil and its place bound with stone. Al-Murabba, at this time when we compiled this book, became the property of the Romans, who changed its beauties, enslaved its people, destroyed its homes, and eliminated its magnificent buildings, leaving nothing of it. Al-Murabba has minarets, and among them is its city, Burjula, and Dalaba. Between Al-Murabba and Burjula is a large stage, and between Burjula and Dalaba is about 8 miles.
