ذِكْرُ خَلْعِ الْمُطِيعِ وَخِلَافَةِ الطَّائِعِ لِلَّهِ وَفِي هَذِهِ السَّنَةِ، مُنْتَصَفَ ذِي الْقَعْدَةِ، خُلِعَ الْمُطِيعُ لِلَّهِ، وَكَانَ بِهِ مَرَضُ الْفَالِجِ، وَقَدْ ثَقُلَ لِسَانُهُ، وَتَعَذَّرَتِ الْحَرَكَةُ عَلَيْهِ، وَهُوَ يَسْتَرُ ذَلِكَ، فَانْكَشَفَ حَالُهُ لِسُبُكْتِكِينَ هَذِهِ الدَّفْعَةَ، فَدَعَاهُ إِلَى أَنْ يَخْلَعَ نَفْسَهُ مِنَ الْخِلَافَةِ وَيُسَلِّمَهَا إِلَى وَلَدِهِ الطَّائِعِ لِلَّهِ، وَاسْمُهُ أَبُو الْفَضْلِ عَبْدُ الْكَرِيمِ، فَفَعَلَ ذَلِكَ، وَأَشْهَدَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ بِالْخَلْعِ ثَالِثَ عَشَرَ ذِي الْقَعْدَةِ. وَكَانَتْ مُدَّةُ خِلَافَتِهِ تِسْعًا وَعِشْرِينَ سَنَةً وَخَمْسَةَ أَشْهُرٍ غَيْرَ أَيَّامٍ، وَبُويِعَ لِلطَّائِعِ لِلَّهِ بِالْخِلَافَةِ، وَاسْتَقَرَّ أَمْرُهُ. وَلَمَّا بُويِعَ الطَّائِعُ رَكِبَ وَعَلَيْهِ الْبُرْدَةُ، وَبَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ سُبُكْتِكِينُ وَالْجَيْشُ، ثُمَّ خَلَعَ مِنَ الْغَدِ عَلَى سُبُكْتِكِينَ خِلَعَ الْمُلُوكِ، وَلَقَّبَهُ نَصْرَ الدَّوْلَةِ، وَعَقَدَ لَهُ لِوَاءَ الْإِمَارَةِ. وَلَمَّا حَضَرَ الْأَضْحَى رَكِبَ الطَّائِعُ وَعَلَيْهِ السَّوَادُ، فَخَطَبَ النَّاسَ بَعْدَ الصَّلَاةِ خُطْبَةً خَفِيفَةً حَسَنَةً. وَحَكَى ابْنُ الْجَوْزِيِّ فِي " الْمُنْتَظَمِ " أَنَّ الْمُطِيعَ لِلَّهِ كَانَ يُسَمَّى بَعْدَ خَلْعِهِ بِالشَّيْخِ الْفَاضِلِ.
Translation
✧ Mention of the deposition of al-Mutiʿ and the caliphate of al-Tāʾiʿ li-Llāh In this year, in the middle of Dhu al-Qaʿdah, al-Mutiʿ li-Llāh was deposed. He had hemiplegia, his tongue had become heavy, and movement had become difficult for him, and he was concealing that. His condition became apparent to Subuktikīn this time, so he summoned him to depose himself from the caliphate and hand it over to his son al-Tāʾiʿ li-Llāh, whose name was Abu al-Faḍl ʿAbd al-Karīm. He did so, and he had witnesses testify against himself to the deposition on the thirteenth of Dhu al-Qaʿdah. The duration of his caliphate was twenty-nine years and five months minus some days. Allegiance was pledged to al-Tāʾiʿ li-Llāh for the caliphate, and his authority became established. When allegiance was pledged to al-Tāʾiʿ, he rode wearing the burdah, with Subuktikīn and the army before him. Then, on the following day, he bestowed upon Subuktikīn robes of kings and titled him Naṣr al-Dawlah, and he bound for him the banner of the emirate. When the Feast of Sacrifice arrived, al-Tāʾiʿ rode wearing black, and he gave a short, fine sermon to the people after the prayer. Ibn al-Jawzī related in al-Muntaẓam that al-Mutiʿ li-Llāh was called after his deposition "the excellent shaykh."
