He was assassinated in 1121

Was he assassinated by Hassan-i-Sabah and/or the Hashshashin? --Stbalbach 06:49, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)

That seems likely...I couldn't find anything that said that specifically, but I'll keep looking. Adam Bishop 16:33, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Aha, Steven Runciman says he was assassinated by the Hashshashin. I've added that here. Adam Bishop 01:05, 23 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Well, now I see that Ibn al-Qalanisi says he was definitely *not* assassinated by the Hashshashin, that was just an excuse made by the caliph. I'll add that too. Adam Bishop 18:50, 18 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

This article....

Why is his father's article (Badr Al-Jamali) also linked to here? they should be seperated. (RollingWave (talk) 02:39, 10 May 2012 (UTC))[reply]
