Life

A Mu'tazilite,Шаблон:Sfn Ibn Ma'ruf was a prominent member of the cultural circle around the vizier Abu Muhammad al-Hasan al-Muhallabi (950/1–963).Шаблон:Sfn

On 18 July 967, Ibn Ma'ruf was appointed as Шаблон:Transl of West Baghdad, the City of al-Mansur, and of the caliphal palaces.Шаблон:Sfn Abu Bakr Ahmad ibn Sayyar was his colleague as Шаблон:Transl of the rest of East Baghdad except for March 968–January 970, when Ibn Sayyar took over responsibility for the entirety of East Baghdad.Шаблон:Sfn

Ibn Ma'ruf was appointed chief Шаблон:Transl of Iraq in June 971 and held the office until he resigned in 973/4 in protest at the interference of the Buyid emirs in the administration of justice.Шаблон:Sfn His successor, Muhammad ibn Salih al-Hashimi, was deposed in May/June 975, and Ibn Ma'ruf was restored to the office of chief Шаблон:Transl.Шаблон:Sfn Caliph al-Ta'i (Шаблон:Reign) offered Ibn Ma'ruf the position of caliphal secretary (Шаблон:Transl), but Ibn Ma'ruf refused.Шаблон:Sfn

He was dismissed and exiled to Fars by the Buyid ruler Adud al-Dawla on 23 August 979, along with other members of the Baghdad establishment close to the caliph.Шаблон:Sfn The position of chief Шаблон:Transl in Baghdad was abolished altogether, and the judicial administration of Iraq handed over to the chief Шаблон:Transl of Shiraz. Iraq was thus effectively reduced to a regular province of the Buyid empire, governed from a new imperial centre.Шаблон:Sfn

Although Ibn Ma'ruf was released from captivity by Adud al-Dawla's successor, Sharaf al-Dawla, in 983,Шаблон:Sfn no chief Шаблон:Transl was appointed in Baghdad until Ibn Ma'ruf's return in 987, when he resumed his position and held it until his death on 25 April 991.Шаблон:Sfn
