The political relations between the Buwayhids, who were of Daylamite origin and entered Baghdad in 334 (945-946) and established the Iraqi branch of the dynasty, and the Qarmatians of Bahrain followed a bumpy course. In the past, the wars played a decisive role in the relations between the Buwayhids, a dynasty belonging to the Zaydī-Shī'a sect, and the Qarmatians. During the period of Iraqi Buwayhid ruler Mu’izz al-Dawla, the Buwayhid armies defeated the allied forces consisting of the Oman ruler and the Qarmatians of Hadjar (or Bahrain) in front of Basra in 340 (951); and approximately fifteen years later, they captured Oman and ended the Qarmatians' sovereignty there. It is possible to say that the relations between the Buwayhids and the Qarmatians of Bahrain were at a good level during the reign of Izz al-Dawla Bakhtiyar and Adud al-Dawla, who are the rulers of the Iraqi Buwayhids, after Muizz al-Dawla. The most serious blow to the influence of the Qarmatians of Bahrain in Iraq was struck by the Battle of Djāmiayn in the period of the sovereignty of Samsām al-Dawla; and after this, the domination of the Qarmatians in Iraq was ended (375/985). In this article which deals with the above issues, the political relations of the Iraqi Buwayhids with the Qarmatians of Bahrain have been examined from various aspects.
