840AD: An endgame from the 9th Century!

In this video, I take you through another ancient chess endgame from Abu Na-am and Rabrab, two shatranj masters.
The game itself has long been forgotten, but the ending survives.

Rabrab has the winning position, but what is the next move?

Here are some of my previous videos, featuring Al-Suli playing full games from the 920s:
