| Quotation |
Hamer Sarracenorum sue nationis cohortes ad bellandum uniersis prope Orientalium et Occidentalium nationibus experientissimo more direxit. Alexandriam quoque antiquissimam et florentissimam civitatem metropolim Aegypti censuario iugo subiecit et abiectis praesidiis Romanorum, quae ibidem degebantur, Babilonemque antefatus Hamer Hismaelitarum dux oppidum condere iussit et praesidia ad tuendam Romaniae dioecesim, quae nunc etiam extant. |
| Translation |
Omar of the Saracens directed the cohorts of his nation to wage war on all the nearby eastern and western nations in the most enterprising manner. He subjected Alexandria- also the oldest and most flourishing civil metropolis of Egypt- to the censuary yoke after the Roman garrisons were cast down, which were found in the same place. And the aforementioned Hamer, leader of the Ismailites, ordered for the town of Babilo to be founded as well as garrisons which still stand even now, to protect against the Roman realm.
