The Iraqi countryside could not support his Türkmen troops, and prices doubled as the latter devastated the agricultural land around Baghdad and systematically plundered its v illages.

152 Although the Türkmen stationed in the immediate vicinity of Baghdad ini- tially seem to have been better behaved, misunderstandings with the local populace resulted in riots, and the billeting of soldiers on the Baghdadis was so unpopular that the caliph was forced to intervene.153 In Dhu ’l- Qi‘da 448/ January 1057, thirteen months after their arrival, Tughrıl and his troops withdrew to campaign in northern Mesopotamia.

154 The way to Baghdad lay open before al- Basasiri. Generously financed by the Fatimids, al-B asasiri had little difficulty in winning over the Bedouin chiefs of northern Mesopotamia such as the ‘Uqaylids who had seen their lands repeatedly ravished by the Türkmen.155 For a year, from Dhu ’l-Q i‘da 450/December 1058 to Dhu ’l- Qi‘da 451/December 1059, the khu†ba in Baghdad was said in the name of the Fatimid caliph, while Shi‘ite control was asserted with the crucifix- ion of Ibn Muslima – the arch enemy of the Shi‘ites of Baghdad – and the exile of the ‘Abbasid caliph.

156 A much greater challenge to Tughrıl remained internal threats to his leadership. In the last days before al-B asasiri’s seizure of the city, a convo- luted – if short-l ived – plot had been hatched in Baghdad by Tughrıl’s wife Altunjan and his vizier Kunduri to install Altunjan’s son by a previous mar- riage to the Khwarazmshah as ruler. The pretender, Anushirwan, attracted no support, and Tughrıl’s wife soon dissociated herself from the plot, all of whose conspirators appear to have been eventually restored to favour without further punishment.

157 More serious was the third great revolt of Ibrahim Yınal, which was Tughrıl’s real reason for neglecting Baghdad. The rebellion was funded and supported by the Fatimids and al- Basasiri, but Tughrıl’s cousin had also been able to capitalise on the Türkmen unrest. The nomads, dependent on pastureland for their flocks, seem to have found Iraq’s mix of arid desert and marsh intolerable (p. 224 below),

and increasingly resented Tughrıl for bringing them there. A further reason for resentment may have been Tughrıl’s attempts in the wake of the occupa- tion of Baghdad to recruit a corps of slave soldiers (mamlūks), a sign of the growing conformity of Seljuk practice with that of most Islamic states of the time – but also a development which threatened to dilute the role and influence of the Türkmen,

158 even if Tughrıl was never able to dispense with them entirely.159 As the price for their support, the Türkmen extracted from Ibrahim two telling concessions: that, in the event of his victory, he would not make them return to Iraq; and that he would not make peace with his cousin under any circumstances.

160 Tughrıl was obliged to call on Chaghrı’s sons Alp Arslan, Qavurt and Yaquti to help him, and thousands of Türkmen were killed in the uprising which ended with Ibrahim Yınal’s execution.161 The lesson of the Türkmen’s loathing for Iraq and the possible trouble this might provoke as a rallying point for dissent could not be forgotten. On defeating al-B asasiri, Tughrıl delegated the administration of Baghdad to the amir Bursuq and sold off its taxation rights,

162 spending a mere two weeks in the city before heading off to the Jibal.163 Judging by a letter Tughrıl sent to his erstwhile ally Quraysh b. Badran from the Banu ‘Uqayl, he had no intention of returning.164 Indeed, when Tughrıl demanded the hand of the caliph’s daughter – an approach that was regarded by al- Qa’im as an impertinent outrage

165 – the caliph attempted to impose the condition that Baghdad should become Tughrıl’s permanent place of residence as a means of making the prospect of the sultan marrying his daughter less attractive.166 Nonetheless, opposition to Tughrıl from within his family and from some groups of Türkmen was as virulent as ever. In 453/1061, Arslan Isra’il’s son Qutlumush launched a rebellion which attracted huge Türkmen support,

167 while shortly before Tughrıl’s death his step- son Anushirwan attempted for a second time to seize the throne for himself. Tughrıl died on Friday, 8 Ramadan 455/4 October 1063, aged seventy, in Rayy, the city which served as his principal base throughout his reign and where he was buried.169 His character was, it seems, a mystery even to the mediaeval chroniclers, for he is described as both ‘intelligent, mild- tempered and extremely tolerant’ and ‘cruel and tyrannous’ by the same source.

170 His achievement is indubitable: the lands subject to the Seljuks by his death spread from Transoxiana to the borders of Syria, from the Gulf far into the Caucasus. His role had been transformed from that of nomad chief to the greatest ruler in the eastern Islamic world. However, for all Tughrıl posed as defender of the caliphate, had grandiose Islamic and Iranian titles showered upon him,

including the new coinage of sultan, and held a court at which poets praised him lavishly in the Arabic he did not understand (pp. 181–2, 195 below), his room for manoeuvre remained limited by the ecological requirements of the Türkmen on whom he continued to rely, and by the constant threat to his claims to suzerainty from other members of his family.
