Jund Filastin
Later Arab geographers divide the "jund" of Damascus into the following districts: the Ghuta plain around Damascus, known as the "Garden Land" for its fertility; the Hawran and Bathaniyya, with Adra'a as capital; Jawlan; Jaydur (mentioned only by Yaqut al-Hamawi); Hula; Balqa; al-Sharah, with capital at Adhruh, sometimes recorded as belonging to "Jund Filastin"; and al-Jibal. Other principal towns and cities were Beirut, Sidon, Tyre (the tax proceeds of which went to "Jund al-Urdunn"), Tripoli and Jubail along the coast. The coastal cities and their immediate surroundings formed their own small districts.
