Al-Mustansir bi’llāh (b.420/1029) was the eighth caliph of the Shī’ite Ismā’īlī Fatimid dynasty which ruled Egypt from 359/969, to 567/1171. The 60-year-long reign of al-Mustansir saw civil war and constant religious rivalry of the Sunni Abbasid caliph in Baghdad. In this study Thomson examines life in Cairo, international relations, the experiences of non-Muslim subjects and al-Mustansir himself, showing the caliph to be a pivotal, yet weak figure, unable to suppress trouble.
