الواثق بالله إبراهيم بن المستمسك

Pretender-caliph at Cairo [740–741]; passed over by his grandfather for profligacy, he sowed the sultan's breach with al-Mustakfi and was hailed on his death — the commons calling him 'al-Musta'ti'. Ibn Fadl Allah's portrait: ram-butting rams, fighting cocks, long-eared goats, unpaid goods — 'the caliphate's name stepped down from the minbars'. The dying sultan repented and deposed him.

خلع الخطبة لخليفتين وخلو المنابر

On al-Mustakfi's death at Qus his will named his son Ahmad; the sultan ignored it and hailed his cousin Ibrahim al-Wathiq — a dissolute man his grandfather had passed over. Chief qadi Ibn Jama'a strove to turn the sultan from the khutba in his name and failed, so they agreed to drop BOTH names and keep the sultan's alone: 'the caliphate's name stepped down from the minbars as if it had never climbed, the prayer for caliphs emptied from the mihrabs as if it had never knocked' — till the sultan's deathbed repentance restored Ahmad as al-Hakim, Muharram 741.
