Years: 975 - 975

Abdallah, the heir to the Fatimid throne, had died before his father Al-Mu'izz li-Din Allah (953-975); therefore, his brother Abu Mansur Nizar al-Azizbillah accedes to the Caliphate on the death of Al-Muizz with the help of Jawhar as-Siqilli.

The reign of Al-Aziz will be primarily significant for the strengthening of Fatimid power in Egypt and Syria.
