Yazdanfar was anIranian noble who ruledQom as aSasanian vassal. In the late 640s/early 650s, theinvading Arabs, who had conquered most of the Sasanian Empire, reached Qum, where Yazdanfar made peace with them, giving them a village to settle in. The reason for his hospitality was that his domain often suffered from raids by theDaylamites, which he hoped would now be defended by the Arabs.
