The Abbasid caliph al-Mansur () reassigned Hisham ibn Amr to Sind. Caliph al-Mahdi () replaced Hisham with his brother Bistam, before reassigning the latter to Adharbayjan. Both Hisham and Bistam were Muslims. Another Taghlibi Muslim, Abd al-Razzaq ibn Abd al-Hamid led an Abbasid expedition against the Byzantines in the summer of 793. In the early 9th century, the Adi ibn Usama line of the Malik division, known as the "ʿAdī Taghlib" or "al-ʿAdawīyya" gained political prominence in the Jazira. One of their members, al-Hasan ibn Umar ibn al-Khattab was appointed governor of Mosul by Caliph al-Amin in 813. Some years later, another Taghlibi linked to al-Hasan by marriage, Tawk ibn Malik of the Attab line of the Jusham division, became governor of Diyar Rabi'a under Caliph al-Ma'mun (r. 813–833). Tawk's son Malik ibn Tawk served as governor of Jund Dimashq (district of Damascus) and Jund al-Urdunn (district of Jordan) under caliphs al-Wathiq () and al-Mutawakkil (). He later founded the Euphrates fortress town of al-Rahba (modern Mayadin).
