al-Mustarshid bi'llah al-Fadl ibn al-Mustazhir

Abbasid caliph [512–529], Abu Mansur al-Fadl ibn al-Mustazhir, born Rabi' I 485. Of soaring resolve and dread presence he revived the caliphate's dignity and campaigned in person till his last expedition broke near Hamadan. A calligrapher without peer among caliphs, he corrected slips in his books; al-Shashi wrote his fiqh al-Umda for him — 'Umdat al-Dunya wa'l-Din. He was killed by Batiniyya at Maragha, Thursday 16 Dhu'l-Qa'da 529.
