The Qarmatians, under Abu Tahir Al-Jannabim, had come close to raiding Baghdad in 927 and had sacked Mecca and Medina in 930.
The assault on Islam's holiest sites had seen the Qarmatians desecrate the Well of Zamzam with corpses of Hajj pilgrims and take the Black Stone from Mecca to Al-Hasa.
Holding the Black Stone to ransom, they force the Abbasids to pay a huge sum for its return in 951.
