Armenian history (c. 660s) attributed to Sebeos, an early outside account of Muhammad and the conquests.
Wikipedia extract
Sebeos was the author of a 7th-century Armenian history. Though his name is not known, he was likely a member of the clergy. It is the primary source for Armenian history in the 6th and 7th centuries. It is valued as the earliest surviving major account of the rise of Islam and the early Muslim conquests and as one of the very few non-Islamic sources on the Muslim conquests.
