قَصْدِ حَمْدَانَ، وَانْهِزَامِهِ، وَعَوْدِهِ إِلَى الطَّاعَةِ فِي سنة اثنتين وثمانين ومائتين كَتَبَ الْمُعْتَضِدُ إِلَى إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ أَيُّوبَ، وَحَمْدَانَ بْنِ حَمْدُونَ بِالْمَسِيرِ إِلَيْهِ، وَهُوَ فِي الْمَوْصِلِ، فَبَادَرَ إِسْحَاقُ، وَتَحَصَّنَ حَمْدَانُ بِقِلَاعِهِ، وَأَوْدَعَ أَمْوَالَهُ وَحَرَمَهُ، فَسَيَّرَ الْمُعْتَضِدُ الْجُيُوشَ نَحْوَهُ مَعَ وَصِيفٍ مُوشْكِيرَ، وَنَصْرٍ الْقُشُورِيِّ، وَغَيْرِهِمَا، فَصَادَفُوا الْحَسَنَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ كُورَةَ وَأَصْحَابَهُ مُتَحَصِّنِينَ بِمَوْضِعٍ يُعْرَفُ بِدَيْرِ الزَّعْفَرَانِ، مِنْ أَرْضِ الْمَوْصِلِ. وَفِيهَا وَصَلَ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ حَمْدَانَ بْنِ حَمْدُونَ، فَلَمَّا رَأَى الْحُسَيْنُ أَوَائِلَ الْعَسْكَرِ طَلَبَ الْأَمَانَ، فَأُمِّنَ، وَسُيِّرَ إِلَى الْمُعْتَضِدِ، وَسَلَّمَ الْقَلْعَةِ، فَأَمَرَ الْمُعْتَضِدُ بِهَدْمِهَا. وَسَارَ وَصِيفٌ فِي طَلَبِ حَمْدَانَ، وَكَانَ بِبَاسُورِينَ، فَوَاقَعَهُ وَصِيفٌ وَقَتَلَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ جَمَاعَةً، وَانْهَزَمَ حَمْدَانُ فِي زَوْرَقٍ كَانَ لَهُ فِي دِجْلَةَ، وَحَمَلَ مَعَهُ مَالًا كَانَ لَهُ، وَعَبَرَ إِلَى الْجَانِبِ الْغَرْبِيِّ مِنْ دِجْلَةَ، فَصَارَ فِي دِيَارِ رَبِيعَةَ. وَعَبَرَ نَفَرٌ مِنَ الْجُنْدِ، فَاقْتَصُّوا أَثَرَهُ، حَتَّى أَشْرَفُوا عَلَى دَيْرٍ قَدْ نَزَلَهُ، فَلَمَّا رَآهُمْ هَرَبَ، وَتَرَكَ مَالَهُ، فَأُخِذَ وَأُتِيَ بِهِ الْمُعْتَضِدَ. وَسَارَ أُولَئِكَ فِي طَلَبِ حَمْدَانَ، فَضَاقَتْ عَلَيْهِ الْأَرْضُ، فَقَصَدَ خَيْمَةَ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ أَيُّوبَ، وَهُوَ مَعَ الْمُعْتَضِدِ، وَاسْتَجَارَ بِهِ، فَأَحْضَرَهُ إِسْحَاقُ عِنْدَ الْمُعْتَضِدِ، فَأَمَرَ بِالِاحْتِفَاظِ بِهِ وَتَتَابَعَ رُؤَسَاءُ الْأَكْرَادِ فِي طَلَبِ الْأَمَانِ، وَكَانَ ذَلِكَ فِي الْمُحَرَّمِ.
Translation
✧ The pursuit of Hamdān, his defeat, and his return to obedience In the year two hundred and eighty-two, al-Muʿtaḍid wrote to Isḥāq b. Ayyūb and Hamdān b. Hamdūn ordering them to come to him while he was in al-Mawṣil. Isḥāq hastened to comply, while Hamdān fortified himself in his strongholds and deposited his wealth and his women there. Al-Muʿtaḍid sent armies against him under Wasīf Mūshkīr, Naṣr al-Qushūrī, and others. They came upon al-Ḥasan b. ʿAlī Kūrah and his companions, who had fortified themselves at a place known as Dayr al-Zaʿfarān in the land of al-Mawṣil. In this year al-Ḥusayn b. Hamdān b. Hamdūn arrived. When al-Ḥusayn saw the vanguard of the army, he sought safe-conduct. He was granted it, was sent to al-Muʿtaḍid, and surrendered the fortress. Al-Muʿtaḍid ordered it to be demolished. Wasīf went in pursuit of Hamdān, who was at Bāsūrīn. Wasīf engaged him and killed a number of his companions. Hamdān fled in a boat he had on the Tigris, carrying with him money that belonged to him, and crossed to the western bank of the Tigris, ending up in the territory of Rabīʿah. A group of soldiers crossed over and followed his tracks until they came upon a monastery where he had alighted. When he saw them, he fled and left his money, which was seized and brought to al-Muʿtaḍid. Those men continued in pursuit of Hamdān until the land became constricted for him. He made for the tent of Isḥāq b. Ayyūb, who was with al-Muʿtaḍid, and sought his protection. Isḥāq brought him before al-Muʿtaḍid, who ordered that he be kept under guard. The chiefs of the Kurds then came one after another seeking safe-conduct. This took place in al-Muḥarram.
