Overview
al-Suyuti reports that in 286 AH Abu Sa'id al-Qarmati appeared in Bahrain, and his strength grew. He was the father of Abu Tahir Sulayman, whom al-Suyuti later says tore out the Black Stone. 1
Fighting broke out between him and the caliph's army. He raided Basra and its surroundings and defeated the caliph's army several times. 1
The date rests on a single report; its conversion to CE is derived. An additional source is needed.
