Dirgham

(

)

... that the Fatimid military commander Dirgham abandoned his pupil, the vizier Ruzzik ibn Tala'i, to be deposed and killed by Shawar, only to overthrow the latter a few months later? Canard p. 318: "When Shawar's success was certain, Dirgham, in spite of his good relations with Ruzzik whom he had instructed in horsemanship and knightly pursuits, did not hesitate to leave him and go over to the side of Shawar", p. 319 "and it must not be forgotten that he betrayed successively Ruzzik and Shawar"

Hook cited, created and expanded within time. Earwig's tool shows no likely copyvios. Offline sources accepted in GF, but needs a QPQ before it's ready to go. Ealdgyth - Talk 16:53, 25 January 2020 (UTC)
