m moved Sahl Smbatean to Sahl ibn-Sunbat over redirect: moving back to original title - the most authoritative scholars including Minorsky and CJF Dowsett use primarily this version of the name, so do many Arabic sources of the time

Sahl Smbatean (Armenian: Սահլ Սմբատեան) was an Armenian[1][2] prince of Shaki, during the 9th century A.D.[3] In Arabic sources, he is referred to as Sahl ibn Sumbat. After the fall of the Mihranid dynasty in 822, Sahl ruled a significant part of Caucasian Albania. Sahl initially provided refuge to Babak Khorramdin and fought with him against the Islamic conquest of Persia. However, later he assisted Afshin, the prominent general[4] under Abbasid Caliph al-Mutasim, in capturing Babak Khorramdin. In 854, Sahl was captured and imprisoned by Bugha al-Kabir al-Sharabi, the Turkish commander of Abbasid Caliph al-Mutawakkil.[5]
