                    In hagiography: Shlemun the Mourner was
          bishop of Ḥadita on the Tigris towards the middle of the VIII
          century. He converted Muslims for which he was beaten and made to shave his beard and
          head. He had a rivalry with ʿIsa ibn Shahlupa, the head of doctors of
          the caliph, concerning taxes imposed on Christians by Muslim authorities. He opposed the
          election of Catholicos Timothy I in
          780. He died at the monastery of Mar Ahrun near Balad.
