تزويج بنت الخليفة لطغرل بك
c. 1062 CE · 454 AH
In 454 al-Qa'im gave his daughter to Tughrul Beg after resisting every way, shaken and begging release — an honour no Buyid king ever won for all their coercion. Tughrul came in 455, entered with the caliph's daughter, restored the inheritances and the makus, farmed Baghdad for a hundred and fifty thousand dinars, and died at Rayy in Ramadan 1.

The account
al-Suyuti says that al-Qa'im resisted the matter with every means, was disturbed and asked to be excused, and then relented. He says that none of the Buyid kings had obtained the like, despite their control over the caliphs. 2
Tughril Beg came the following year, consummated the marriage with the caliph's daughter, restored the inheritances and the tolls, and guaranteed Baghdad for a hundred and fifty thousand dinars. Then he returned to al-Rayy and died there in Ramadan. 2
