Al-Mu'tadid's campaign against Mosul and the castle of Mardin

In 281 al-Mu'tadid marched on Mosul against Hamdan ibn Hamdun, who had leaned toward the Kharijite Harun al-Shari; Hamdan took refuge in his fortresses, and the caliph himself climbed Mardin's castle to the gate, ordered it opened, seated himself in it, emptied the castle and had it demolished.
