Basmyl leader[edit]

The last sentence in the article claims that the head of Basmyl tribe in 630s was Sunni.(Yshbara Shunishi-Shad was a head of the Basmyl tribe, and as indicated by his name, he was a Sunni.) I find this assertion to be somewhat questionable. Rashidun era began in 632. In 630 Islam was still in what is now Saudi Arabia. Sasanid Persia hadn't been defeated and a tribe leader in Central Asia had almost no chance to be informed about Islam. Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 19:56, 18 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
