Khurrazad

 Khurrazad ( Xwarrah-Zād) was an eminent Sassanian commander during the Arab invasion of Iran. Khurrazad was brother of the powerful Spahbod Rostam Farrokhzād, who fought and died at the Battle of al-Qādisiyyah. Khurrazad is most famous for being present at the Battle of Jalula. There he led a major Persian force against the Muslims, resulting in a major disaster with perhaps a hundred thousands Persian casualties. Khurrazad was killed by the Arabs along with 4,000 of his troops.

Life of Khurrazad
Although very little is written of Khurrazad, we do know that he was born to a powerful family from Azerbaijan. His father, Farrokh Hormizd, served the Sasanian rulers in high office. Khurrazad was also in high office temporarily; he was the darik-pat (chamberlain) of the Sasanian Empire.
