Hazrat Tamim bin Hazlam narrates that the first time the greeting of "Amarat" (governorship) was given to the governor of Kufa. It happened that Hazrat Mughirah bin Shu'bah came out of the palace, and a man from the tribe of Kindah greeted him with the salutation of "Amarat." He expressed displeasure at this and said, "What is this? I am just a man among you." After that, such a greeting was abandoned, but in later times, it was resumed.
