Abd al-Wahid ibn al-Muwaffaq

Abd al-Wahid ibn al-Muwaffaq, uncle of al-Muktafi. Al-Mas'udi says that al-Mu'tadid honoured him and inclined to him, and that he had no resolve for the caliphate or leadership, his resolve being in amusement. ¹

He was detained by Mu'nis al-Fahl, and al-Qasim ibn Ubayd Allah was sent to him. Al-Mas'udi says that al-Muktafi was told that he had corresponded with his servants, and that al-Qasim kept at al-Muktafi until he had him killed. ¹
