Jawdhar
- ... that the eunuch chamberlain Jawdhar was likely responsible for the accession of al-Mansur Billah as ruler of the Fatimid Caliphate in 946? Source: "given the murky fate of Qāsim, the Qāʾim’s firstborn and natural successor, the story looks suspiciously like a fabrication to legitimise a palace coup effected by Jawdhar on behalf of his master" (Brett 2017, p. 59)
- ALT1:... that the memoirs of the eunuch chamberlain Jawdhar are one of the most important sources on the history of the Fatimid Caliphate during the middle of the 10th century? Source: "Die Sita, die Ğauḏar's Sekretär nach dem Tode seines Chefs, gestützt auf dessen Erinerrungen und hinterlassene Papiere verfasste...nach dem Tod al-Mahdis ist die Sirat Ğauḏar unsere wichtigste Quelle" (Halm 1991, p. 249)
