ومنهم عمرو بن عامر مزيقيا. روى الأصفهاني عن عبد المجيد بن أبي عيس الأنصاري والشرقي بن قطامي أنه عاش ثمانمائة سنة أربعمائة سنة سوقة في حياة أبيه وأربعمائة سنة ملكا، وكان في سني ملكه يلبس في كل يوم حلتين،فإذا كان بالعشي مزقت الحلتان عنه لئلا يلبسهما غيره فسمي مزيقيا.وقيل إنما سمي بذلك لأن على عهده تمزقت الأزد فصاروا إلى أقطار الأرض،وكان ملك أرض سبإ فحدثته الكهان بأن الله يهلكها بالسيل العرم فاحتال حتى باع ضياعه وخرج فيمن أطاعه من أولاده وأهله قبل السيل العرم ومنه انتشرت الأزد كلها والأنصار من ولده.
Amr Aaamir Maziqiya He was also a long lived Arab. Isfahani has narrated from Abi Ais Ansari and Sharqi bin Qattami that he lived for 800 years. Four hundred years during the lifetime of his father and another four hundred years afterwards, when he was a ruler. His practice was to wear two kinds of garments everyday. Every night he tore up his clothes, so that no one else may wear them. That’s why he is known as Maziqiya (one who tears). It is said that he was called Maziqiya, because during his reign, people of Azd migrated to various parts of the world. Amr was a king of the Saba kingdom. Soothsayers told him that his country would be destroyed by the floods of Iram. So he sold his land and migrated to some other place with his subjects. Therefore all the tribes of Azd and Ansar are his descendants.
