I'm wondering what the various Turkic steppe empires (Gokturks, Uighurs, etc) called the Arabs or the Abbasid realm in general. Did they go with the Chinese "Dashi"? Or did they have their own name? I don't think I've ever come across anything on that.

During those periods Turkic peoples used the term Täzik ("Tajik") for the Arabs and caliphates. Dashi is the Chinese version of this name.
