Overview
Abu al-Husayn Ali ibn Muhammad al-Baridi, brother of Abu Abd Allah al-Baridi. 2
In al-Suyuti
He went out in 330 AH, and the caliph and Ibn Ra'iq went out against him; both were defeated and fled to Mosul. Baghdad and the caliphal palace were plundered. Then Sayf al-Dawla defeated him near al-Mada'in, and he returned to Wasit and then fled to Basra. 3
In al-Mas'udi
The affairs of the Baridis grew strong in Basra in the days of al-Muttaqi; they forbade the boats to sail upstream, and their army grew great on water and land. 4
In Ibn al-Athir
His brother sent him to Baghdad to take the khutba for him over the districts of al-Ahwaz. When Ibn Muqla became vizier, he offered him twenty thousand dinars, and he appointed Abu Abd Allah over al-Ahwaz apart from al-Sus and Jundaysabur. 2
