It is true that Khorasan region has evolved through the centuries. When you say that it passed to the Arabs then to the Persian Sassanids, that statement cannot be true since the Sassanid era predates Arab rule, which was around 226-651 AD (Sassanid empire).

I meant Saminid. Persian Sassinid tried to conquer "Khorasan", then the Arabs, and then the Persian Saminid.
