ذِكْرُ اسْتِيلَاءِ رُكْنِ الدَّوْلَةِ عَلَى الرَّيِّ لَمَّا سَمِعَ رُكْنُ الدَّوْلَةِ وَأَخُوهُ عِمَادُ الدَّوْلَةِ ابْنَا بُوَيْهِ بِمِلْكِ وَشْمَكِيرَ الرَّيَّ، طَمِعَا فِيهِ ; لِأَنَّ وَشْمَكِيرُ كَانَ قَدْ ضَعُفَ، وَقَلَّتْ رِجَالُهُ وَمَالُهُ بِتِلْكَ الْحَادِثَةِ مَعَ أَبِي عَلِيٍّ، فَسَارَ رُكْنُ الدَّوْلَةِ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ بُوَيْهِ إِلَى الرَّيِّ، وَاقْتَتَلَ هُوَ وَوَشْمَكِيرُ، فَانْهَزَمَ وَشْمَكِيرُ، وَاسْتَأْمَنَ كَثِيرٌ مِنْ رِجَالِهِ إِلَى رُكْنِ الدَّوْلَةِ، فَسَارَ وَشْمَكِيرُ إِلَى طَبَرِسْتَانَ، فَقَصَدَهُ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ الْفَيْرُزَانِ، فَاسْتَأْمَنَ إِلَيْهِ كَثِيرٌ مِنْ عَسْكَرِهِ أَيْضًا، فَانْهَزَمَ وَشْمَكِيرُ إِلَى خُرَاسَانَ. ثُمَّ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَ بْنَ الْفَيْرُزَانِ رَاسَلَ رُكْنَ الدَّوْلَةِ وَوَاصَلَهُ، فَتَزَوَّجَ ( رُكْنُ الدَّوْلَةِ ) بِنْتًا لِلْحَسَنِ، فَوَلَدَتْ لَهُ وَلَدَهُ فَخْرَ الدَّوْلَةِ عَلِيًّا. وَكَانَ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ نَذْكُرَ هَذِهِ الْحَوَادِثَ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ السَّعِيدِ نَصْرِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ، وَإِنَّمَا ذَكَرْنَاهَا هَاهُنَا ; لِيَتْلُوَ بَعْضُهَا بَعْضًا.
Translation
✧ Mention of Rukn al-Dawlah's seizure of al-Rayy When Rukn al-Dawlah and his brother ʿImād al-Dawlah, the two sons of Buwayh, heard that Washmakīr had taken possession of al-Rayy, they coveted it, because Washmakīr had become weak and his men and wealth had diminished as a result of that incident with Abū ʿAlī. Rukn al-Dawlah al-Ḥasan b. Buwayh marched to al-Rayy, and he and Washmakīr fought. Washmakīr was defeated, and many of his men sought quarter from Rukn al-Dawlah. Washmakīr went to Ṭabaristān, and al-Ḥasan b. al-Fayrūzān pursued him, and many of his army also sought quarter from him. Washmakīr fled to Khurāsān. Then al-Ḥasan b. al-Fayrūzān corresponded with Rukn al-Dawlah and cultivated close ties with him, and Rukn al-Dawlah married a daughter of al-Ḥasan. She bore him his son Fakhr al-Dawlah ʿAlī. It would have been appropriate for us to mention these events after the death of al-Saʿīd Naṣr b. Aḥmad, but we have mentioned them here so that one may follow another.
