(According to re li a ble sour ces, he was thir ty-five.) They ap point ed

brought. "Now put the stone on it to geth er," he said. After the stone
was placed on the cloth, he said: "Let the eld est man of each tribe
come and hold one end of the cloth." They car ried the stone to its
place in that man ner. He then went up and in stalled the stone he
had tak en from them. As he grew old er, he at tract ed the love and re -
spect of all. Because of the fame his hon esty won
him, he was known as al-Amin, the most
