In this study, we tried to address the process of Bad b. Dûstek's establishing the state within the framework of the information in the resources. Little is known about Bad b. Dûstek's pre-reign period. The information available is irregular, contradictory and ambiguous. Assessing this complex information, the establishment process of the Marwanid/Dûstekî State is tried to be understood correctly. Considering Bad b. Dûstek's mint of coins in 373/983 on his name and some other records, it is widely believed that the state was founded on that date. But some information reveals that Bâd had established a state before this date. Handling the subject within this context, whoever Bad b. Dûstek was, the source of his power, the course of his coming to the rule and the history of being an independent state are tried to be answered according to the information enlisted. It is tried to determine state of the region and the cities where he carried out his military activities where Bâd lived before he came to the rule. Examining the activities of the Byzantine, Hamdanid, Armenian Princedoms and Buveyhîs, who were dominant in the region before 373/983, their compatibility with information related to our subject is determined.
