orphan date March 2009 The Maronite Chronicles written by Demographics of Syria Syrian Christian Maronites in the middle of the 7th century, they provide an archeology archeologically verified record of the first stable decade of Umayyad rule over the Levant between 658 and 665 AD during the rule of the fifth caliph Muawiyah I . The chronicles provide the first record for the Jizya tax which at that time bought the Jacobite Orthodox Church Jacobites protection from persecutors both Arabs and Chalcedonian Eastern Orthodox Church Orthodox Christians which held control in the region from Constantinople to Syria . The Maronite Chronicles refute traditionalistic chronology of Muslim history such as the Islamic tradition of the year of the Hajj , when Muawiyah I made an Abrahamic pilgrimage to the Hijaz and it records that Muhammad was seated in a throne of the region yet was unworthy of even a visit by the 5th Caliph. Quotes AG 969 658 CE ...Mu awiya, Hudhayfa, his sister s son, and Mu awiya gave orders that he be put to death. Ali, too, threatened to go up once again against Mu awiya, but they struck him while he was at prayer in al Hira and killed him. Mu awiya then went down to al Hira where all the Arab forces proffered their right hands to him, whereupon he returned to Damascus. AG 970 June 659 There was an earthquake in Palestine. In the same month the bishops of the Jacobites Theodore and Sabukht came to Damascus and held an inquiry into the Faith with the Maronites in the presence of Mu awiya. When the Jacobites were defeated, Mu awiya ordered them to pay 20,000 denarii and commanded them to be silent. Thus there arose the custom that the Jacobite bishops should pay that sum of gold every year to Mu awiya, so that he would not withdraw his protection lit. loose his hand ...
