The Year 278 AH
ذِكْرُ عِدَّةِ حَوَادِثَ وَفِيهَا ظَهَرَ كَوْكَبٌ ذُو جُمَّةٍ، وَصَارَتِ الْجُمَّةُ ذُؤَابَةً. وَحَجَّ بِالنَّاسِ هَذِهِ السَّنَةَ هَارُونُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ الْهَاشِمِيُّ. وَفِيهَا قَبَضَ الْمُعْتَمِدُ عَلَى أَبِي الصَّقْرِ وَأَصْحَابِهِ، وَانْتَهَبَ مَنَازِلَهُمْ، وَطَلَبَ بَنِي الْفُرَاتِ فَاخْتَفَوْا. وَخَلَعَ عَلَى عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ وَهْبٍ، وَوَلَّاهُ الْوِزَارَةَ. وَسَيَّرَ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ أَبِي السَّاجِ إِلَى وَاسِطَ لِيَرُدَّ غُلَامَهُ وَصِيفًا إِلَى بَغْدَاذَ، فَمَضَى وَصِيفٌ إِلَى السُّوسِ فَعَاثَ بِهَا وَنَهَبَ الطِّيبَ، وَأَبَى الرُّجُوعَ إِلَى بَغْدَاذَ. وَفِيهَا قُتِلَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ اللَّيْثِ أَخُو الصَّفَّارِ، قَتَلَهُ رَافِعُ بْنُ هَرْثَمَةَ، وَكَانَ قَدْ يَحْنِقُ بِهِ، وَتَرَكَ أَخَاهُ. وَفِيهَا غَارَ مَاءُ النِّيلِ، فَغَلَتِ الْأَسْعَارُ بِمِصْرَ. فِي الْمُحَرَّمِ مِنْهَا قَدِمَ الْمُوَفَّقُ أَبُو أَحْمَدَ مِنَ الْغَزْوِ فَتَلَقَّاهُ النَّاسُ إِلَى النَّهْرَوَانِ فَدَخَلَ بَغْدَادَ وَهُوَ مَرِيضٌ بِالنِّقْرِسِ، فَاسْتَمَرَّ فِي دَارِهِ فِي أَوَائِلِ صَفَرٍ، وَمَاتَ بَعْدَ أَيَّامٍ
