مَسِيرِ جَيْشِ الْمَهْدِيِّ إِلَى مِصْرَ فِي سنة إحدى وثلاثمائة جَهَّزَ الْمَهْدِيُّ الْعَسَاكِرَ مِنْ إِفْرِيقِيَّةَ، وَسَيَّرَهَا مَعَ وَلَدِهِ أَبِي الْقَاسِمِ إِلَى الدِّيَارِ الْمِصْرِيَّةِ فَسَارُوا إِلَى بُرْقَةَ، وَاسْتَوْلَوْا عَلَيْهَا فِي ذِي الْحِجَّةِ، وَسَارُوا إِلَى مِصْرَ، فَمَلَكَ الْإِسْكَنْدَرِيَّةَ وَالْفَيُّومَ، وَصَارَ فِي يَدِهِ أَكْثَرُ الْبِلَادِ، وَضَيَّقَ عَلَى أَهْلِهَا، فَسَيَّرَ إِلَيْهَا الْمُقْتَدِرُ بِاللَّهِ مُؤْنِسًا الْخَادِمَ فِي جَيْشٍ كَثِيفٍ فَحَارَبَهُمْ وَأَجْلَاهُمْ عَنْ مِصْرَ، فَعَادُوا إِلَى الْمَغْرِبِ مَهْزُومِينَ.
Translation
✧ The march of the Mahdi's army to Egypt In the year 311, the Mahdi equipped armies from Ifriqiya and sent them with his son Abu al-Qasim to the Egyptian lands. They marched to Barqa and took possession of it in Dhu al-Hijjah. Then they marched to Egypt, and he seized Alexandria and the Fayyum, until most of the lands came into his hand, and he straitened its people. So al-Muqtadir bi-Allah sent Mu'nis the servant against them with a dense army. He fought them and expelled them from Egypt, and they returned to the Maghrib defeated.
