Al-Qa'im (caliph)
Al - Qa'im bi- amri ' llah (Arabic القائم بأمر الله, DMG al - ʾ Qā in bi- amri ' llāh; * 1001, † April 2, 1075 ) was the twenty-sixth Abbasid Caliph ( 1031-1075 ).
Al - Qa'im ibn al -Qadir was, like his father al -Qadir (991-1031) endeavors, reputation and the religious leadership of the Abbasid caliphs in the Islamic world to expand. Thus, the doctrine was held that military -won power could only be legitimized by the caliph (see also: caliphate - The theory of the Caliphate ).
The increased influence of the caliphs in Baghdad and Iraq advantage was that the power of the Buyids further weakened by internal disputes, so that al - Qa'im already sought the elimination of buyidischen protectorate. Thus, a first embassy in the Seljuk Beg was already under Tughrul 1040 representations.
These contacts were important, as was rocked by serious unrest between Sunnis and Shiites since the mid-11th century Baghdad. In addition, al - Qa'im fell out with the general of the Turkish Garden al - Basasiri. This then formed an alliance with the Fatimids in Egypt.
Although the Seljuks occupied Baghdad in 1055 and ended the patronage of the Buyids, but the conditions were not consolidated. After riots erupted in Iran, al - Basasiri with Fatimid support the occupation of Baghdad in 1059. al - Qa'im was taken prisoner and was interned outside of Baghdad. The official insignia of the Abbasids were sent to the Fatimids in Cairo.
Although the Seljuk Turks conquered Baghdad in 1060 and again enthroned al - Qa'im again as caliph, but now the Abbasids were under the auspices of the Seljuks. al - Qa'im had dominion togrıl Begs legitimize by officially appointed him to the Sultan and he transferred the secular rule. In addition, he had to marry a daughter with togrıl Beg. The followers of al - Qa'im were, as already under the Buyids, politically powerless. Next Caliph in Baghdad was al - Muqtadi ( 1075-1094 ).
