خروج أبي ركوة الأموي على الحاكم
Abu Rakwa, an Umayyad of the line of Hisham ibn Abd al-Malik named al-Walid, was given his kunya from a water-flask (rakwa) he carried on his travels in the manner of the Sufis. He called people to a claimant from Hisham's descendants and took oaths of allegiance. He settled at al-Hulla as a teacher, and Arab boys gathered around him; then he told them he was the imam, and styled himself al-Thair bi-amr Allah al-Muntasir min a'da' Allah. He entered Barqa, where its people collected 200,000 dinars for him, and he took 100,000 dinars from a Jewish man whom he accused of holding deposits for him. He struck coins with his name and titles, rode out on a Friday, gave the khutba and cursed al-Hakim. Al-Hakim assembled sixteen thousand men for him under al-Fadl ibn Abd Allah, and 500,000 dinars and 5,000 pieces of cloth were carried to al-Fadl. Abu Rakwa met al-Fadl, but al-Fadl outmanoeuvred him until his companions demanded that he be delivered to the land of Nubia, by a pledge and covenant between him and them. They took him there; al-Fadl sent after him, they handed him over, and he was brought to al-Hakim, who had him mounted on a camel, paraded him, and then killed him. Al-Hakim showed al-Fadl great honour, then killed him after he had recovered from an illness that had come upon him.

دار العلم بالقاهرة
Al-Hakim's early piety built Cairo's Dar al-Ilm, gathered jurists and hadith-men and raised the Jami' al-Hakimi — for three years; then he turned to killing men of learning, closed the house and barred much good.

الخطبة للحاكم صاحب مصر بمكة والمدينة
In 396 Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Umar al-Alawi led the pilgrimage and gave the khutba at Mecca and Medina for al-Hakim, ruler of Egypt, following the usual practice; he ordered the people of the two sanctuaries to stand whenever his name was mentioned, and did the same in Egypt, where, whenever he was mentioned, they stood and prostrated in the markets and gathering places.

بسط عبيد مصر في الفسطاط ٤١١
On a Tuesday, two nights before the end of Shawwal 411, a written placard appeared in Egypt, with slips scattered along the lanes asking the state to unleash the slaves in Egypt for three days. Al-Hakim bi-Amr Allah feared it, as did the commanders and soothsayers, that they would burn Egypt, kill and plunder. So they let the slaves of Egypt take their camp, and the sultans' women pressed it until it weakened. The fighting lasted three days. People cried out to the slaves, saying that if their aims were achieved, nothing mighty or humble would remain unhumbled. Women, children and the city's notables gathered, crying out to the slaves, and [the spoils] were sold in the seized markets. Then al-Hakim went out himself, rode, halted before a line of them and called out 'Ya Aghatiyy', and they turned back. He had burned a third of Egypt, and a third of it had gone to plunder.

مقتل الحاكم بأمر الله وتستّر أخته ٤١١
Ibn al-Jawzi relates from the people of Egypt that Sitt al-Mulk, al-Hakim's sister, had a gathering with Ibn Dawwas seated by her. Al-Hakim feared him and said to Sitt al-Mulk, 'What have I to do with this man? He wants to bring me together with him.' Sitt al-Mulk arranged a link between them; Ibn Dawwas came back to her and charged her to bring him round to what she wanted. She returned to Ibn Dawwas, and that night he rode to al-Muqattam and climbed the mountain with two Maghribi slaves. At dawn the two slaves came carrying him back to Ibn Dawwas, who brought him to Sitt al-Mulk's assembly. She buried him there and kept it unknown, concealing the matter for three days, and she announced that he was absent for seven. She paid the rikabiyya (the mounted guard) to deal with anyone who opposed her affair. Then Ali ibn al-Hakim was pledged allegiance, the khutba was given in his name, and she set him up as heir apparent and crowned him with the crown of al-Mu'izz. She had Ibn Dawwas killed by the hand of Nasim, master of the curtain and the sword, after promising him kingship and wealth. She grieved, and put to death those among the slaves and servants who knew. It is said he died in Shawwal 411, aged thirty-seven, and that his caliphate lasted twenty-five years.

هدم الحاكم كنيسة القيامة وكنائس مصر
In 398 al-Hakim destroyed Jerusalem's Church of the Sepulchre and all Egypt's churches, ordering Christians to wear arm-length crosses of five Egyptian ratls and Jews wooden qirami of the same weight, with black turbans; a party of them professed Islam. Afterwards he permitted the rebuilding of the churches and let those compelled return to their faith.

الحاكم يمنع نساء مصر من الخروج
In 405 al-Hakim bi-Amr Allah forbade the women of Egypt ever to leave their houses or enter the bathhouses, abolished women's shoemaking so they could not be shod for the street, and had several women who defied the order killed and a group of old women drowned.

فتح دار جعفر الصادق بالمدينة ونقل آثاره إلى مصر
In the year 400, al-Hakim, ruler of Egypt, sent a man with the stipends (rusum) of the Hasanids and Husaynids and added to them, ordering him to open the house of Ja'far ibn Muhammad al-Sadiq in Medina after seeking their permission. No one had touched that house since Ja'far's death. From it were carried to Egypt his copy of the Qur'an, a wooden bowl bound with iron, a bamboo shield, a spear and a bed. Al-Hakim returned the bed to them and took the rest, claiming a better right to it.

واقعة القيروان ضد الرافضة أيام المعز بن باديس
Al-Mu'izz b. Badis broke with the Rafida and proclaimed Sunnism; when his horse stumbled and he called on Abu Bakr and Umar, the commons rose against the Shia and slew them wholesale — the rift deepened until the khutba for the Cairo caliphs was cut in 440.
